A Companion to Pedro Almodovar "Marvin D'Lugo and Kathleen M. Vernon give us the ideal companion to Pedro Almodovar's films. Established and emerging writers offer a rainbow of insights for fans as well as academics." Jerry W. Carlson, Professor of Film Studies, The City College & Graduate Center CUNY "Rarely has a contemporary film artist been treated to the kind of broad, rich discussion of their work that can be found in A Companion to Pedro Almodovar." Richard Pena, Professor of Film Studies, Columbia University Once the enfant terrible of Spain's youth culture explosion, the Movida, Pedro Almodovar's distinctive film style and career longevity have made him one of the most successful and internationally known filmmakers of his generation. Offering a state-of-the-art appraisal of Almodovar's cinema, this original collection is a searching analysis of his technique and cultural significance that includes work by leading authorities on Almodovar as well as talented young scholars. Crucially included here are contributions by film historians from Almodovar's native Spain, where he has been undervalued by the academic and critical establishment. With a balance between textual and contextual approaches, the book expands the scope of previous work on the director to explore his fruitful collaborations with fellow professionals in the areas of art design, fashion, and music as well as the growing reach of a global Almodovar brand beyond Europe and the United States to Latin America and Asia. It also proposes a reevaluation of the political meanings and engagement of his cinema from the perspective of the profound cultural and historical upheavals that have transformed Spain since the 1970s.
