Spanish Cinema is one of the most diverse and interesting to international level; but lacks communication platforms and detailed analysis. This new volume of the Directory of World Cinema addresses the issue. It focuses on the main corpus of movies that have left an indelible tread through different generations of spectators and a place where users can read full analysis of the best films with an interdisciplinary perspective. Introductory essays establish key players and explore important genres such as Biography, Guerra Civil (Civil War), Comedy, Crime, Documentary, Drama/Social Drama, Experimental, Family/Children, Fantasy/Sci-Fi, Horror, Musical, Mystery, Period, Romance, Teen, Thriller and Transición (Cinema of the Transition). Reviews and case studies analyze individual titles in considerable depth. For the film studies scholar, or for all those who love Spanish cinema and want to learn more, Directory of World Cinema: Spain will be an essential companion.
