“I’m a newspaperman!”: Howard Hawks softened a political satire into a proto-feminist romcom
"His Girl Friday" set the bar for romcoms and gave us a feminist heroine before feminism was cool.
Looking for El Santo (2023)
The granddaughter of original El Santo producer Jorge Garcia-Besné and the archivist behind the restoration of the first two El Santo pictures travel to Havana, Cuba, to clandestinely visit the locations where the original films were made, and granddaughter Viviana realizes the trip was as much of a journey to chart her family evolution as of historical cinema exercise. Filmed almost entirely on iPhones to avoid drawing the attention of the authorities, it is also a brief portrait of a resilient population faced with a daily struggle to feed themselves under a severe embargo from the West.
