Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
MALAYSIAN cinema and music are often discussed in isolation, as if they exist in separate worlds. The truth is, the film and music industries are joined at the hip. The feature film, “Hungry Ghost Diner”, directed by Cho We Jun and produced by Benji Lim, attempts to buck this trend. Starring singer Chen Keat Yoke, the film premiered last week. Due to the local bias for imported blockbusters, this is likely its final week at the cinemas so go watch it now. This film is a notable addition to the collection of Malaysian movies that use local music to tell a story. A Malay song also appears in the film not just as background but as a narrative tool.
