  • 8 Redefining Zorro: Hispanicising the Swashbuckling Hero
    Redefining Zorro: Hispanicising the Swashbuckling Hero Victoria Kearley Introduction Such did the theatrical trailer for The Mask of Zorro (Campbell, 1998) proclaim of Antonio Banderas’s performance as the masked adventurer, promising the viewer a sexier and more daring vision of Zorro than they had ever seen before. This paper considers this new image of Zorro and the way in which an iconic figure of modern popular culture was redefined through the performance of Banderas, and the influence of his contemporary star persona, as he became the first Hispanic actor ever to play Zorro in a major Hollywood production. It is my argument that Banderas’s Zorro, transformed from bandit Alejandro Murrieta into the masked hero over the course of the film’s narrative, is necessarily altered from previous incarnations in line with existing Hollywood images of Hispanic masculinity when he is played by a Hispanic actor. I will begin with a short introduction to the screen history of Zorro as a character and outline the action- adventure hero archetype of which he is a prime example. The main body of my argument is organised around a discussion of the employment of three of Hollywood’s most prevalent and enduring Hispanic male types, as defined by Latino film scholar, Charles Ramirez Berg, before concluding with a consideration of how these ultimately serve to redefine the character. Who is Zorro? Zorro was originally created by pulp fiction writer, Johnston McCulley, in 1919 and first immortalised on screen by Douglas Fairbanks in The Mark of Zorro (Niblo, 1920) just a year later.

  • From Latin to Latino Lover: Hispanicity and Female Desire in Popular Culture
    From Latin to Latino Lover: Hispanicity and Female Desire in Popular Culture Nadia Lie Published online: February 2014 http://www.jprstudies.org Abstract: This article examines the relationship between the concept of the Latin Lover and the notion of Hispanicity. The essay starts with an analysis of The Sheik (1921), which is generally considered as the film that launched the figure of the Latin Lover. The author then compares this figure to an important icon of Hispanicity: Zorro. Discussing various incarnations of Zorro, the author argues that the Latin Lover and the Zorro-incarnation of Hispanicity gradually merged over the years, thereby producing a new species: the Latino Lover. About the Author: Nadia Lie is professor of Spanish and Spanish-American literature and film at the University of Leuven (KU Leuven). She is the author of Transición y transacción: la revista cubana Casa de las Américas (Maryland-Leuven: Hispamérica-Leuven UP, 1995) and of several (co-)edited volumes in the field of comparative literature (e.g. Constellation Caliban (Amsterdam-Atlanta: Rodopi, 1997), Zorro & Co (Nijmegen: Vantilt, 2002), and El juego con los estereotipos: la redefinición de la identidad hispánica en la literatura y el cine postnacionales (Genève-Bruxelles-Oxford: Peter Lang, 2012)). She is currently working on space and mobility in contemporary Latin American cinema. Since 2013, she directs the international research project Transit. Transnationality at Large. The Transnational Dimension of contemporary Hispanic culture, funded by the European Union (website: http://projecttransit.eu/es ). Keywords: Antonio Banderas, Hispanicity, Isabel Allende, Latin Lover, Martin Campbell, Rudolph Valentino, Shrek, The Sheik, Zorro According to Richard Rodriguez, we owe the invention of the Hispanic to Richard Nixon, whose administration introduced this category in 1973 in the classification system of United States citizens (15).

  • La Leyenda De MOVIELAND; Historia Del Cine En El Estado De Durango
    La Leyenda de MOVIELAND; Historia del Cine en el Estado de Durango (1897 - 2004) Antonio Avitia Hernández México, 2005 Introducción De manera casi tan fortuita y tan veleidosa como los criterios y las posibilidades económicas de las compañías cinematográficas, de los productores y de los directores de cine, algunos paisajes naturales del estado de Durango han sido seleccionados como escenario del rodaje de diversas películas. Hasta donde se ha podido investigar, entre los años de 1897 a 2004, se han filmado un total de doscientos setenta y ocho (278) cintas en la entidad. De éstas, treinta (30) son de la época del cine silente, producidas entre 1897 y 1936. Noventa y ocho (98) son de formato de ocho, super ocho y dieciséis milímetros, independientes, así como filmes documentales científicos, antropológicos y culturales, entre otros. Con respecto al cine industrial, ciento cincuenta (150) han sido los filmes rodados en territorio durangueño entre los años de 1954 a 2004. Los objetivos principales de esta historia del cine en Durango son: hacer el recuento cuantitativo y cronológico, la ubicación histórica, la reseña de las sinopsis argumentales, las fichas filmográficas y la relación de los personajes y locaciones sobresalientes de las películas rodadas en la entidad, así como describir la impresión que, en el imaginario colectivo regional, ha tenido el cinematógrafo, en tanto séptimo arte e industria cinematográfica. De manera colateral, hasta donde ha sido posible, se hace referencia a la suerte de los filmes en lo que respecta a su distribución. En el primer capítulo El cine silente en Durango se hace el recuento, sinopsis argumental, situación histórica y establecimiento de los treinta filmes del periodo silente rodados en la entidad, desde el arribo de los enviados de Edison en 1897 hasta la cinta documental de propaganda política laudatoria, grabada por encargo del gobernador del estado coronel Enrique R.

    The History of Zorro Johnston McCulley first brought Zorro to life in a 1919 pulp fiction serial. Inspired by McCulley’s Zorro, silent film star Douglas Fairbanks became the silver screen’s first swashbuckling action hero portraying ZORRO in the 1920 film, The Mark of Zorro. In 1925, Douglas Fairbanks returned to star in the sequel to The Mark of Zorro, Don Q, Son of Zorro. McCulley continued writing more than 60 stories featuring his masked hero, Zorro, over the next 40 years. Throughout the 1930’s and 40’s, ZORRO captured the imagination of audiences as he fought for justice in the Republic Studios serials. Tyrone Power became the next truly iconic silver screen Zorro, following in Fairbanks’ footsteps, when 20th Century Fox remade The Mark of Zorro in 1940. In 1957, Disney’s ZORRO television series premiered, starring Guy Williams and became a worldwide sensation. In the early 1960’s, Zorro character was adopted by the expanding Italian film industry. The masked hero also appeared in Mexican, Spanish, French and Belgian productions. The wave of international Zorro film productions reached its peak in 1974, with the release of the Italian/French production of ZORRO, starring Alain Delon. Zorro entered the 1990’s with 88 episodes of the New World television series starring Duncan Regher as the masked hero. The 1998 blockbuster The Mask of Zorro starred Antonio Banderas, Anthony Hopkins and introduced Catherine Zeta-Jones. The film grossed $250m worldwide. A sequel, The Legend of Zorro premiered October 30, 2005. ZORRO FEATURE FILMS IN DEVELOPMENT! Jonas Cuaron (Gravity co-writer) is set to direct the futuristic film: “Z” A Django/Zorro crossover film from Quentin Tarantino is on the fast- track at Columbia Pictures – a sequel to both Django Unchained and The Legend of Zorro!
