A well thought inquiry on the history of latin american cinema
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
The texts selected by the editor offer a historical perspective of the New Latin American Cinema. I was pleased to revisit some relevant manifestos of Glauber Rocha, Fernando Birri and Fernando Solanas. And the papers were carefully chosen, in order to convey a historical background as well as an aesthetic critique of the New Cinema. Unfortunately, the texts stop in the early nineties. Therefore, there are no contributions related to the more recent production, that has a distinctive industrial flavor, and its dialogs with the tradition. But it is overall a very well thought selection.
