Édition bilingue anglais/espagnol—Mexico is one of the richest while least researched film cultures in the world. Especially its classical period is a treasure trove of cinematic genius containing everything from the refined and educated mass entertainment to stunningly outrageous genre concoctions. This collection of ten texts invites the reader to a journey of discovery. The range of subjects includes: from various looks at national particularities in genre cinema, especially melodrama and horror; via the cosmopolitanism of Mexican cinema; film as an agent of modernization; rewriting the Mexican movie canon; to an appreciation of editor Gloria Schoemann. For cognoscenti a welcome addition to existing texts – for the uninitiated a wide gate to enter this extraordinary world.—México es una de las culturas cinematográficas más ricas y menos investigadas del mundo. Su periodo clásico es un tesoro de ingenio cinematográfico que contiene de todo, desde el entretenimiento de masas refinado y educado hasta brebajes de género asombrosamente escandalosos. Esta colección de diez textos invita al lector a un viaje de descubrimiento. El abanico temático abarca diversas miradas a las particularidades nacionales del cine de género, especialmente el melodrama y el terror, además del cosmopolitismo del cine mexicano; el cine como agente de modernización; la reescritura del canon del cine mexicano, y una apreciación de la editora Gloria Schoemann. Para los conocedores, se tratará de una bienvenida adición a los textos ya existentes; para los no iniciados, una amplia puerta para ingresar a este extraordinario mundo.
