A Brief History of New Mexico's Film Industry New Mexico’s history in film extends all the way back to the early 20th century. In 1898, the Edison Company shot a fifty second film titled “Indian Day School”, which depicted a line of Native American children following their teacher out of a school house and back in again. This film, being one of the first documentary type films, was also the first film made in New Mexico and one of the very first ever to be shot in the West. Over the decades, New Mexico has become a hub for all kinds of films and T.V. shows, including “Breaking Bad,” “Better Call Saul,” “The Avengers,” “Independence Day: Resurgence,” “Lone Survivor,” “The Book of Eli,” “Whiskey Tango Foxtrot," “Transformers,” “No Country for Old Men,” “The Night Shift,” “Logan,” “The Goldfinch,” “Roswell, New Mexico,” “Midnight Texas,” “Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials,” “Sicario,” “Transcendence,” “We’re the Millers,” and more! New Mexico Film Production Tax Credit New Mexico continues to offer one of the most competitive incentives package in the industry which includes a 25%-35% Refundable Film Production Tax Credit.

It tells the story of the rise and fall of Walter White (Bryan Cranston), a mild-mannered chemistry teacher turned meth kingpin. He turns to a life of crime after having been diagnosed with terminal cancer, and he sees meth manufacturing as the most lucrative way to provide for his family. It has been nearly a decade since the series finale, yet it endures through sequel films, spin-offs, and online streaming. My thesis investigates the series’ staying power, and I would argue that lies in its thematic content. Breaking Bad is not just a straightforward story of one man’s descent into a life of crime, but it is also a mediation on dominant, repressive power structures. The series offers a look at these structures through the lens of race, gender, and disability through the actions of characters and their interactions with one another.

Sarma* INTRODUCTION What if federal authorities captured Walter White? Considering that he committed the murders of many individuals and orchestrated many more in the course of building and running his global meth trade, the prosecution would be able to seek the ultimate punishment against him. But, would a jury give him the death penalty? Walter’s gripping journey stirred within viewers a range of complex emotions, but even those re- volted by his actions must concede that it is extraordinarily difficult to envision a random collection of twelve people unanimously agreeing that he deserves a state-sanctioned execution. Indeed, it seems that many of us actually rooted for Walter throughout the series, even when we strug- gled to understand why. This Essay explores the answer to the question of why we would spare Walter White from the death penalty.
