Summary: "Cinema between Latin America and Los Angeles aims to flesh out some of the gaps between the generally accepted dichotomy between Hollywood and Latin America, American imperialism and Latin American nationalism, in order to produce a more nuanced view of transnational cultural relations in the western hemisphere. The essays examine the multifaceted relationship between Latin American cinema and Los Angeles, analyzing Mexican-American moviegoing in LA; the city as a nodal point through which talent, films, and criticism traveled across the continent; and the ways in which the vantage point of Los Angeles prompts us to reconsider the transnational dimensions of national cinemas. Contributors are scholars and archivists working in Latin America and the United States"-- Provided by publisher

Bibliography: p. 161-170

内容説明・目次

内容説明

Historically, Los Angeles and its exhibition market have been central to the international success of Latin American cinema. Not only was Los Angeles a site crucial for exhibition of these films, but it became the most important hub in the western hemisphere for the distribution of Spanish language films made for Latin American audiences. Cinema between Latin America and Los Angeles builds upon this foundational insight to both examine the considerable, ongoing role that Los Angeles played in the history of Spanish-language cinema and to explore the implications of this transnational dynamic for the study and analysis of Latin American cinema before 1960. The volume editors aim to flesh out the gaps between Hollywood and Latin America, American imperialism and Latin American nationalism in order to produce a more nuanced view of transnational cultural relations in the western hemisphere.
