About the author

Li Yizhong is an author whose writing centers on film and television appreciation and cross-cultural observation. Publicly available information is limited, and no clear record has been found of his birth and death dates, nationality, or educational background; what can be confirmed is that three of his works are included in the collection: An Appreciation of Outstanding Chinese and Foreign Film and Television Works, Starry Road of Last Night, and One Hundred Foreign Students Look at Chinese Cinema. Judging from the titles and categories, his writing spans both film and television and biography: on the one hand, he offers appreciation and interpretation of outstanding Chinese and foreign films and television works, guiding readers to understand their artistic conception; on the other, he focuses on how foreign students view Chinese cinema, presenting viewing experiences and cultural differences in cross-cultural contexts. Starry Road of Last Night leans toward accounts of people and past events, with a biographical flavor. Overall, his works emphasize close reading of works combined with genuine responses, and their subjects stay close to ordinary viewing experience, making them suitable for readers interested in film appreciation and Chinese-foreign cultural exchange.
