Mexican Melodrama: Film and Nation from the Golden Age to the New Wave
Elena Lahr-Vivaz
Explores the compelling ways that new-wave Mexican directors use the tropes and themes of Golden Age films to denounce the excesses of a nation characterized as a fragmented and fictitious construct. Analysing big hits and quiet successes of both Golden Age and new-wave cinema, the author offers in each chapter a comparative reading of films from the two eras.
