1.0 out of 5 stars to be avoided, April 23, 2007

This review is from: A Companion to Latin American Film (Monografías A) (Hardcover)
This is an astonishingly bad book that I consulted while teaching a course on Latin American culture. For example, the entry for "City of God" (the movie that provides the image used on the cover of this book) has several errors in its plot synopsis and then proceeds to cite several unpublished conference papers, a few short journalistic film reviews and makes far-fetched comparisons to Garcia Marquez's prose, presumably because he, too, is Latin American. To make matters worse, the writing is clunky even when it manages to be accurate.
