Mapping this evolution out for the first time, the author takes three key events under consideration: the Mexican Revolution (1910-1920); the student movement and massacre in 1968; and, finally, the more recent Zapatista Rebellion (1994-present). Analyzing films such as Vamanos con Pancho Villa (1936), El Grito (1968), and Corazon del Tiempo (2008), the author uses the term 'political conflict' to refer to those violent disturbances, dramatic periods of confrontation, injury and death, which characterize particular historical events involving state and non-state actors that may have a finite duration, but have a long-lasting legacy on the nation. These conflicts have been an important component of Mexican film since its inception and include studio productions, documentaries, and independent films."--Provided by publisher.Topics and Issues in National CinemaMotion picturesPolitical aspectsMexicoMotion picturesMexicoHistoryFilm theory & criticismMotion picturesPolitical aspectsMotion picturesHistory.791.430972Thornton Niamh892764UtOrBLWUtOrBLWUkLoBPBOOK9910511902403321Revolution and rebellion in Mexican film2552303UNINA
