Gina Marchetti is an Associate Professor in the Department of Comparative Literature at the University of Hong Kong. She is the author of Romance and the "Yellow Peril": Race, Sex, and Discursive Strategies in Hollywood Fiction (1993) and From Tian'anmen to Times Square: Transnational China and the Chinese Diaspora on Global Screens (1989-1997) (2006).

Although remade by Martin Scorsese, Infernal Affairs still awaits recognition as one of the masterworks of international genre filmmaking. Gina Marchetti's hugely insightful book calls much-deserved attention to this deceptively complex trilogy, but explicates the multiple levels on which it operates, in particular showing the myriad and subtle ways it draws on the particularities of Hong Kong history and society while at the same time participating in global film movements. -- David Desser, Professor and Director, Unit for Cinema Studies, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign
