AB  - Considers protagonist's "non-action" in two Chinese film adaptations of Hamlet, Feng Xiaogang's 2006 The Banquet and Sherwood Hu's 2007 Prince of the Himalayas (both q.v.), in terms of Taoism and Buddhism, respectively. Positions protagonists' non-action in terms of Lao Tzu's Taoist idea of "wu wei" ("doing nothing") and Buddhist concept of "karuna" (a "turning inward" and "absence of self"). English summary, 508.
