Abstract
This study conducts a digital social network analysis (SNA) of the early Hong Kong film industry from 1914 to 1941, focusing on the connections between directors and actors in different periods. Using Gephi and the online ‘Hong Kong Film Search System’ launched by the Hong Kong Film Archive, it attempts to identify, visualize, and analyze the different structural features of the industry, including nodes, connections, and communities. This structural analysis also helps reflect on the existing historical writing about the early Hong Kong film industry, especially the notable discourse on the Shanghai–Hong Kong connection.
