What is The cinema of Álex de la Iglesia (Spanish and Latin-American Filmmakers) about?
Álex de la Iglesia, initially championed by Pedro Almodóvar, and at one time the enfant terrible of Spanish film, is still making film critics nervous. The director of some of the most important films of the Post-Franco era -- __Acción mutante, El día de la bestia, Muertos de risa__ -- receives here the first full length study of his work. Breaking away from the pious tradition of acclaiming art-house auteurs, The cinema of Álex de la Iglesia tackles a new sort of beast: the popular auteur, who brings the provocation of the avant-garde to popular genres such as horror and comedy.
