影響與傳承 Impact & Legacy

繁體中文

張愛玲雖以小説名家身分為主,卻為1940至60年代嘅上海同香港影壇留下多個劇本,其筆下對都市男女心理嘅細膩刻劃,影響後來文藝片嘅敘事,亦令文學同電影嘅改編互動更受重視。

English

Known first as a novelist, Chang left several screenplays for the Shanghai and Hong Kong film worlds of the 1940s to 1960s. Her close reading of urban romance and psychology influenced later literary adaptations and strengthened the dialogue between literature and cinema in Chinese-language film.
