Though Luis Buuel, one of the most important filmmakers of the twentieth century, spent his most productive years as a director in Mexico, film histories and criticism invariably pay little attention to his work during this period. The only booklength Englishlanguage study of Buuel's Mexican films, this book is the first to explore a significant but neglected area of this filmmaker's distinguished career and thus to fill a gap in our appreciation and understanding of both Buuel's achievement and the history of Mexican film.Ernesto AcevedoMuoz considers Buuel's Mexican filmsmade between 1947 and 1965within the context of a national and nationalist film industry, comparing the filmmaker's employment of styles, genres, character types, themes, and techniques to those most characteristic of Mexican cinema. In this study Buuel's films emerge as a link between the Classical Mexican cinema of the 1930s through the 1950s and the 'new' Cinema of the 1960s, flourishing in a time of crisis for the national film industry and introducing some of the stylistic and conceptual changes that would revitalize Mexican cinema.
