Spanish Cinema by Rob Stone

From the surrealist films of Luis Bunuel to the colourful melodramas of Pedro Almodovar, Spain has produced film-makers who have consistently provided a condoning or dissenting eye on Spanish history and culture. Rob Stone charts a history of Spanish Cinema throughout the turbulent Francoist years and beyond.
Rob Stone's 'Spanish Cinema' is a treasure trove of aficionados and novices alikeIt leaves you impatient to seek out hundreds of rare gems and revisit many more familiar classics from Almodovar to Saura, Bunuel to Medem. Stone has plenty to say about Spanish history and society too. Artists and critics, pleasure and politics: it's all there in the mix. Tom Charity, Time Out
