“Fernando de Fuentes once said: “Mexican cinema ought to be a faithful reflection of our severe and tragic way of being, not a poor imitation of Hollywood.”

De Fuentes 1894-1958 was one of the most important directors in Mexico during the early decades of sound, the so-called “Golden Age of Mexican Cinema.” Even so, his movies are all but unknown in the U.S.

The reason for the directors neglect here isnt hard to figure out: his movies have been very hard to see, at least north of the U.S./Mexico border.”
