Revolution and Rebellion in Mexican Film examines Mexican films of
political conflict from the early studio Revolutionary films of the
1930-50s up to the campaigning Zapatista films of the 2000s.
Mapping this evolution out for the first time, the author takes
three key events under consideration: the Mexican Revolution
(1910-1920); the student movement and massacre in 1968; and,
finally, the more recent Zapatista Rebellion (1994-present).
Analyzing films such as Vamanos con Pancho Villa (1936), El Grito
(1968), and Corazon del Tiempo (2008), the author uses the term
'political conflict' to refer to those violent disturbances,
dramatic periods of confrontation, injury and death, which
characterize particular historical events involving state and
non-state actors that may have a finite duration, but have a
long-lasting legacy on the nation. These conflicts have been an
important component of Mexican film since its inception and include
studio productions, documentaries, and independent films.
