Robert Rodriguez stands alone as the most successful U.S. Latino filmmaker today, whose work has singlehandedly brought U.S. Latino filmmaking into the mainstream of twentyfirstcentury global cinema. Rodriguez is a prolific (eighteen films in twentyone years) and allencompassing filmmaker who has scripted, directed, shot, edited, and scored nearly all his films since his first breakout success, El Mariachi, in 1992. With new films constantly coming out and the launch of his El Rey Network television channel, he receives unceasing coverage in the entertainment media, but systematic scholarly study of Rodriguezs films is only just beginning.The Cinema of Robert Rodriguez offers the first extended investigation of this important filmmakers art. Accessibly written for fans as well as scholars, it addresses all of Rodriguezs feature films through Spy Kids 4 and Machete Kills, and his filmmaking process from initial inspiration, to script, to film (with its myriad visual and auditory elements and choices), to final product, to (usually) critical and commercial success. In addition to his close analysis of Rodriguezs work, Frederick Luis Aldama presents an original interview with the filmmaker, in which they discuss his career and his relationship to the film industry. This entertaining and muchneeded scholarly overview of Rodriguezs work shines new light on several key topics, including the filmmakers creative, lowcost, efficient approach to filmmaking; the acceptance of Latino films and filmmakers in mainstream cinema; and the consumption and reception of film in the twentyfirst century.
