- Sultry bandidas, gut-busting comicos, and terrifying monstruos--they all make appearances in "Cine Mexicano". Combining art deco style with pulp fiction sensationalism, the more than 150 movie posters in "Cine Mexicano" are culled from the Agrasanchez Film Archive--the largest print collection of its kind. With a bilingual introduction that surveys the history of Mexican cinema, "Cine Mexicano" is an unforgettable exploration of gorgeous graphic art and exotic cinema at its finest.
