A history of Latin American cinema, with detailed analysis of the
twenty-five best films. Latin American cinema has seen major
developments in the past half-century, and some of the most
exciting work in contemporary film now originates there. This
Companion traces its development from the mid 1890s, with
particular attention to the early period when it was dominated by
foreign film makers (or foreign models such as Hollywood), through
the 1960s when as a genre it found its feet - the New Latin
American Cinema movement - and beyond. Detailed analysis of the
best twenty-five films of Latin America follows: cast and crew,
awards, plots, themes and techniques. The 'Guide to Further
Reading' includes important books, articles and Internet sites.
