This title is an acquisition.

The Terrorizers by Edward Yang is explored through Fredric Jameson’s contention that it is not simply a postmodern film, but the postmodern film. The role of Taipei is critical to this argument and the film is measured next to the way the modernist Blow-Up represents London.
