Discussant: Michael Saenger (Southwestern University). The event is co-sponsored by the Seminary Co-Op Bookstore. ::::: How did Kurosawa influence George Lucas' Star Wars? Why do critics repeatedly use the adjective Shakespearean to describe Gong Joon-ho's film Parasite (2019)? How do East Asian cinema and theater portray vocal disability and transgender figures?
- Notes:

This book reveals deep connections among Asian and Anglophone performances.
