I think part of the problem with Mexican movies as well as other countries films (Greece, Italy, Germany, etc.) is that many of them are not available with English subtitles. I have recently become of a fan of Jorge Negrete who made many films in the 40s and most of the films I've been able to get of his do not have subtitles.

However, it would be a good start if just the few that are availbale with English subs could be shown. There are so many good foreign films that deserve attention. I'd certainly like to see more of them.

Simon of the Desert is coming up in a few months, IIRC. I agree. I'd love to see Bunuel's Mexican films. He made many there, and I've only seen a few of them.

I have been watching Spanish-speaking movies mostly filmed in Mexico from the 1930's to the 1960's. I discovered a very handsome actor named Jorge Mistral. He had a somewhat tragic life and early death, but his movies were great. He made some for Hollywood too, one being the 1957 film Boy On A Dolphin starring Sophia Loren. I would like to see an evening or a day devoted to some of the better Mexican movies, specifically from the 1940's to the 1960's. Jorge Mistral starred in the Mexican version of our Wuthering Heights called Abismos de Pasion filmed in 1954 with Mr. Mistral playing the role of Heathcliff. I would like to see that movie included in a salute to Mexican movies.
