Abstract:

In the late 1960s, the transformation into localization was initiated in Hong Kong society and film industry, with entertainment as the subject appeal. In this context, Hong Kong left-wing film production was, however, deeply influenced by the mainland trend, embodying intertextuality with mainland films. The productions, under the high banner of politics, turned out to be aesthetically homogeneous in terms of conceptualization and stereotypes, thus gradually detached from the Hong Kong audience. Meanwhile, the industry itself suffered depression with severely decreasing number of productions. The import and export of films between Hong Kong and the mainland also reached a historical low. After the reform and openingup in mainland, the left-wing films recovered to some extent, but the declining trend on the whole was not reversed.

Key words: localization, import and export, intertextuality, declining trend,  Hong Kong left-wing films
