Abstract
This chapter addresses a paradox in the global circulation of moving images, namely that there are two seemingly contradictory strategies for success in the global market for film: the strategy of eliminating to the largest extent possible any marker of cultural specificity from film in order to accommodate the broadest possible range of cultural sensibilities in audiences, and the strategy of foregrounding cultural specificity in order to engage in a trade of cultural difference.
