What does the portrayal of gender in film reveal about Spanish
society? To what extent and in what ways does cinema contribute to
constructions of national and regional identity? How does gender
interact with ethnicity, class, politics and history?Gender and
Spanish Cinema addresses these questions and more in its
examination of twentieth-century film. Defining 'gender' in its
broadest sense, the authors discuss topics such as body,
performance, desire and fantasy. Gender is not considered in
isolation, but is discussed in relation to nationalism, race,
memory, psychoanalyisis and historical context. The chapters are
wide-ranging, dealing with subjects such as Buuel, cinema under
Franco, 1950s melodrama and Pedro Almodvar.Bringing together
leading academics from the UK, US and Spain, this volume examines
the diversity of gender representation in Spanish cinema through a
range of genres. A filmography and illustrations enhance the text.
