Expand and enjoy your cinematic knowledge

Paul Julian Smith caries us through the contemporary influences of Mexican screen fiction emphasizing the différence entre cinema and television. Before reading this book I sure am you thought You Had a pretty good handle on the subject. HOWEVER he is systematic and textbook Almost like in showing you what you missed May-have. It ouvert my eyes.

I was wondering why the book covered Pans Labyrinth (2006) as I thought It was a movie from Spain Then I Realized it is more of a dissertation on Guillermo del Toro (Mexican).

Too bad They left out Sleep Dealer (2008) Assistant Director Álvaro Curiel born on September 10, 1973 in Mexico City, Distrito Federal, Mexico as Álvaro Curiel de Icaza. Grandson of Federico Curiel.

We can not include everything as the book is focusing on todays screen fiction. I am Gaining a new reverence to TV from this book by Paul Julian Smith. HOWEVER with only two years of Spanish I can barely keep up and am glad this book is written in English.

I hope you are not expecting too many pictures as there are only a handful of black and white. There is an Appendix: five interviews with media professionals, a fair bibliography, and index.

It looks like how I Spend My limited discretionary income will-have to be re-Evaluated as I search for the movies Mentioned in this book.
