The sources selected when describing the movie Spring Subway, have been all written by people who know about the subject of Chinese cinema. Yingjin Zhang, who wrote the book Chinese national cinema, is an Associate Professor of Chinese, Comparative Literature, and Film Studies at Indiana University, Bloomington, so not only is he Chinese, but knows about literature and film studies, being his point of view of much interest when we talk about the new genres arousing in Chinese cinema.
He received his M.A. from the University of Iowa in 1987 and Ph.D. in comparative literature from Stanford University in 1992. Before joining the UC San Diego faculty in 2001, he taught at Indiana University in Bloomington, where he was honored with an Outstanding Junior Faculty Award in 1996. He served as President of the American Association of Chinese Comparative Literature in 1993-94 and received, among others, a Postdoctoral Fellowship from the University of Michigan in 1995-96, a Summer Faculty Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities in 1999, a Pacific Cultural Foundation Research Grant (Taipei) in 2000, a Fulbright China Research Fellowship in 2003-04, and a UC Humanities Research Institute Fellowship (Irvine) in 2005. He also taught at the University of Chicago, Nanjing University (China), and Shanghai Jiaotong U (China) as a visiting professor.
As our Wikipedia article is going to be about a Chinese movie, we consider it important to have people who are deeply implied in the concept of Chinese cinema, which is the case of all the authors cited above.

En El Reencuentro Abraham Cahan trata de explicar cómo se siente una familia judía que tras tres años viviendo en continentes separados consigue finalmente reunirse en América y comprobar los cambios sufridos en el núcleo de la familia durante todo ese tiempo, no reconociéndose entre sí, ni física ni psíquicamente.
Giorgio Bortot escribe que a aquellos inmigrantes que trataban de entrar en América:
“Se les exigió: ser preferentemente europeo; ser de sana y robusta constitución, exenta de enfermedades y malformaciones que alteren su capacidad laborativa presente o futura; asegurar que no venían a practicar la mendicidad, y la mujer adulta, además, a ejercer la prostitución; declarar su religión; viajar en segunda o tercera clase; residir en zonas determinadas; al llegar, tomar otros recaudos para asegurar la defensa social”.

Tal y como dictan las palabras de Rafael Vidal Jiménez: “los intentos de nuestras élites políticas por elaborar un discurso sobre la presunta “identidad supranacional europea” remite a uncomplejo proceso de negociación cultural que pone en juego nuevas formas de organización disciplinada de la subjetividad, es decir, nuevos modelos de objetivización social de las relaciones del individuo consigo mismo, con los demás y con la verdad“.

En estos tiempos en los que las noticias vuelan a través de las redes informáticas y las conexiones vía satélite, me he detenido un poco para hechar la vista atrás y recordar la que quizá fue la primera guerra mediática de la historia. La guerra de Vietnam, una guerra que marcó un antes y un después en la vida de una generación; un conflicto que marcó nuestra niñez y que nos fue mostrado con toda su cruedeza, a través de la televisión. La guerra se colaba en nuestro salón a la hora de cenar, gracias al trabajo de un puñado de periodistas que arriesgaban la vida para mostrarle al mundo un conflicto, cruel como ninguno, que dio origen a muchos cambios en la sociedad de la época.
