China and The Chinese in the Prelinger Archives serves as a valuable testimony to transnational-travel filmmakers from both China and America.Isaac Oliver Upham,Shih Zong Eng,and Moon Kwan collaboratively build a cultural bridge,facilitating the China-U.S.co-production of films and dramas.Through its prism,China and The Chinese captures the breathtaking scenery of rivers and mountains,and The Giant's Sword immerses the audience in the magnificent imagination of Tang Dynasty novels.Additionally,folk crafts play a pivotal role as protagonists in these early transnational productions,drawing inspiration from the folk wisdom of classical China.In order to break through the polar narrative and foster a more inclusive perspective,it is crucial to expand the concept of heroic history and broaden our understanding of national history.This approach will promote the multilateral interpretation of early transnational travel films on a global scale.
