Independent Study

I am still thinking about my I.S as I haven't come up with a title just yet. So far, my idea is to analyze Jackie Chan appearance in the two cultures- USA and Hong Kong- and to see what his character brings to the film as a whole. I've noticed that in HK films, he has more power over how the outcome of the film is but however when he enters Hollywood, his presence is less-needed.

Films to use:
  • Rush Hour 3
  • Shanghai Knights
  • Rush 2
  • New Police Story

My other idea was to use films the Departed, Infernal Affairs, Rush Hour 3 and New Police Story. Though however, I cannot think of a relationship between these films that significantly stands out.
