BRIEF NOTES

Wang Renmei: The Wildcat of Shanghai
By Richard J. Meyer

ISBN 978-988-013996-5 : 157 pages
$30.00

Reviewed by Carl Bennett

This lean biography of Chinese actress Renmei Wang is a good overview of her life and film career. The book is illustrated with several photographs, includes a Wang filmography, and concludes with interview transcripts with family member Dr. Yong Wang, actor Yi Qin, and Dong Yuhua on the Chinese Cultural Revolution.

Rather than view the DVD as a bonus to the book, we see the book as supplemental material to the DVD.

For our review of the accompanying DVD home video edition of Wild Rose (1932), see our Wild Rose on home video page.
