This course will trace the history of film in Mexico during more than eight decades. We will study critical sources and films from the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema (1930s-1950s) to the present era. Works will include those by influential directors, such as Fernando de Fuentes; films by émigré directors like Luis Buñuel (Spain); films from the documentary genre, and films by many other important contributors to this large body of cinema. The course is organized by the following themes/topics designed to reflect the rich variety of Mexico’s cinematographic production: the Mexican Revolution, masculine identity, feminine identity, genre cinema, LGBTQI films, and recent box office successes. Through viewing this wide range of films, students will gain a greater understanding of Mexican film production in its historic, cultural and aesthetic dimensions.
