I have always been interested in Mexican film, but lately I have really been aggressively seeking stuff out. There is obviously a lot of stuff in the last few decades that has been successful in the states like Del Toro, Iñárritu, Cuarón and even more obscure stuff like Jodorowsky, but I have really been wanting to get familiar with the history of it. Unlike US, France or Italian cinema, the history of Mexican film hasn't been documented that extensively, so I have had to do a lot of research and even some absurdly difficult work to be able to watch certain things. For instance, I had to use a YouTube downloading agent to get an un-subbed copy of María Candelaria, then find a third site to DL the subs from and combine them in VLC. The only English subbed copy I could find on Amazon was upwards of $50. It was worth the trouble, because that film is amazing, but damn. I have always been a huge fan of all of Buñuel's work, but his Mexican films have a different atmosphere altogether. Even the movies he has disowned over time like A Woman Without Love, I find great to watch. I finally saw Los Olvidados recently and it blew me away.
Anyway, if you didn't want to real all of that, what are some Mexican films you recommend? I am looking for older stuff so I can get familiar with the history of Mexican film, but I will take any suggestions. It's a huge bonus if those things are available on BluRay, but I'm not holding my breath for that hahaha. |
