| How did Johnnie To go from an almost unknown director in Western circles in 2000 to one of the world’s most talked about international filmmakers today? That's a question Marie Jost has tried to answer in her essay “The Rise of Johnnie To.” http://www.hkcinemagic.com/en/page.asp?aid=348 Marie details how To made a name for himself in the West, how his films were first appreciated by fanboys, became festival curiosities, subjects of intense debates between critics and journalists, the focus of numerous prestigious retrospectives and turned into the topic of quite a few university papers and books. Marie also reveals how To's persona came across and evolved in the interviews translated into English and made available to his non-Chinese audience. Pdf and e-book versions will follow soon...
