4.0 out of 5 stars Scholarly but hermetic collection of essays with 2 stills, December 10, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: South American Cinema: A Critical Filmography, l915-l994 (Garland Reference Library of the Humanities) (Hardcover)
Because this book is a collection of essays on 140 films by diverse authors, it suffers from the lack of a single vision of South American films. A better book is Ronald Schwartz' LATIN AMERICAN FILMS 1932-1994 (McFarland) which popularizesa over 300 films from Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America, has 70 fascinating stills a Chronology and Video Sources and availability. Both books deserve to be purchased by customers and libraries because in the aggregate, their ultimate aim is to impose a critical cosmos on that elusive theme of Latin American film.
