  • The Only Defense Is Excess: Translating and Surpassing Hollywood’S Conventions to Establish a Relevant Mexican Cinema”*
    ANAGRAMAS - UNIVERSIDAD DE MEDELLIN “The Only Defense is Excess: Translating and Surpassing Hollywood’s Conventions to Establish a Relevant Mexican Cinema”* Paula Barreiro Posada** Recibido: 27 de enero de 2011 Aprobado: 4 de marzo de 2011 Abstract Mexico is one of the countries which has adapted American cinematographic genres with success and productivity. This country has seen in Hollywood an effective structure for approaching the audience. With the purpose of approaching national and international audiences, Meximo has not only adopted some of Hollywood cinematographic genres, but it has also combined them with Mexican genres such as “Cabaretera” in order to reflect its social context and national identity. The Melodrama and the Film Noir were two of the Hollywood genres which exercised a stronger influence on the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema. Influence of these genres is specifically evident in style and narrative of the film Aventurera (1949). This film shows the links between Hollywood and Mexican cinema, displaying how some Hollywood conventions were translated and reformed in order to create its own Mexican Cinema. Most countries intending to create their own cinema have to face Hollywood influence. This industry has always been seen as a leading industry in technology, innovation, and economic capacity, and as the Nemesis of local cinema. This case study on Aventurera shows that Mexican cinema reached progress until exceeding conventions of cinematographic genres taken from Hollywood, creating stories which went beyond the local interest. Key words: cinematographic genres, melodrama, film noir, Mexican cinema, cabaretera. * La presente investigación fue desarrollada como tesis de grado para la maestría en Media Arts que completé en el 2010 en la Universidad de Arizona, Estados Unidos.

  • 1 Cuba Exotizada Y La Construcción
    RAZÓN Y PALABRA Primera Revista Electrónica en América Latina Especializada en Comunicación www.razonypalabra.org.mx CUBA EXOTIZADA Y LA CONSTRUCCIÓN CINEMATOGRÁFICA DE LA NACIÓN MEXICANA Maricruz Castro Ricalde 1 Resumen En las próximas líneas proponemos la ratificación del trópico como el lugar de la sensualidad, lo bravío y lo salvaje, ideas que circulaban desde mucho tiempo antes, a través de la literatura de ficción y de viajes, principalmente. Sin embargo, lejos de significar un agente de caos o destrucción, el personaje de María Antonieta Pons, en el cine mexicano de los años cuarenta, confirma la posibilidad de una nación armónica, que acepta formas distintas de ejercer la femineidad. Las trasgresiones en sus filmes, al estar siempre acotadas, revelan las estrategias de un modelo de nación poco flexible que se obstina, no obstante, en mostrar un rostro comprehensivo y heterogéneo. Palabras clave. Cine de rumberas, nación, edad de oro del cine mexicano, representaciones de género En distintos momentos ha sido documentada la influencia de la industria cinematográfica mexicana en los mercados de Latinoamérica, durante la que ha sido denominada su “Edad de Oro”. Entre 1935 y 1958, las películas mexicanas inundaron las salas de aquellos países que no tenían o no habían logrado consolidar su propia industria fílmica. México se convirtió en un centro de irradiación cultural que impuso pautas múltiples: lingüísticas (léxicas, fonéticas, sintácticas, pragmáticas), visuales (puesta en escena), ritmos, estructuras y géneros narrativos, entre muchos otros. Se convirtió, entonces, en un sitio aspiracional para actores culturales de diversos ámbitos. Dentro del ámbito cinematográfico, esto se manifestó en el arribo de intérpretes, directores, guionistas y técnicos de otros lares, cuyo anhelo era insertarse en este próspero campo laboral.

  • A Life in Stasis: New Album Reviews
    A Life In Stasis: New Album Reviews Music | Bittles’ Magazine: The music column from the end of the world With the Olympics failing to inspire, it can seem as if the only way to spend the long summer months is by playing endless rounds of tiddlywinks, or consuming copious amounts of Jammy Dodgers. But, that doesn’t have to be the case. There is a better way! For instance, you can take up ant farming, as my good friend Jeffrey has recently done, or immerse yourself in the wealth of fantastic new music which has recently come out. Personally, I would recommend the latter. By JOHN BITTLES In the following column we review some of the best new albums hitting the shelves over the coming weeks. We have the shadowy electronica of Pye Corner Audio, pop introspection by Angel Olsen, the post dubstep blues of Zomby, some sleek house from Komapkt, Kornél Kovács and Foans, the experimental genius of Gudrun Gut and Momus, and lots more. So, before someone starts chucking javelins in my direction, we had better begin… Back in 2012 Sleep Games by Pye Corner Audio quickly established itself as one of the most engaging and enthralling albums of modern times. On the record, ghostly electroncia, John Carpenter style synths, and epic, ambient soundscapes converged to create a body of work which still sounds awe-inspiringly beautiful today. After the melancholy acid of his Head Technician reissue last month, Martin Jenkins returns to his Pye Corner Audio alias late August with the haunted landscapes of the Stasis LP.
