Описание:

La India María—a humble and stubborn indigenous Mexican woman—is one of the most popular characters of the Mexican stage, television, and film. Created and portrayed by María Elena Velasco, La India María has delighted audiences since the late 1960s with slapstick humor that slyly critiques discrimination and the powerful. At the same time, however, many critics have derided the iconic figure as a racist depiction of a negative stereotype and dismissed the India María films as exploitation cinema unworthy of serious attention. By contrast, La India María builds a convincing case for María Elena Velasco as an artist whose work as a director and producer—rare for women in Mexican cinema—has been widely and unjustly overlooked.

Drawing on extensive interviews with Velasco, her family, and film industry professionals, as well as on archival research, Seraina Rohrer offers the first full account of Velasco’s life; her portrayal of La India María in vaudeville, television, and sixteen feature film comedies, including Ni de aquí, ni de allá [Neither here, nor there]; and her controversial reception in Mexico and the United States. Rohrer traces the films’ financing, production, and distribution, as well as censorship practices of the period, and compares them to other Mexploitation films produced at the same time. Adding a new chapter to the history of a much-understudied period of Mexican cinema commonly referred to as “la crisis,” this pioneering research enriches our appreciation of Mexploitation films.

Описание: This book speaks to readers of all ages and walks of life. Every one of us wrestles with questions about life beyond death, creation, the existence of a Creator and the purpose of life itself. Especially now that we live in such turbulent and uncertain times, the need to know has become even more crucial. Aren't we all searching for hope and assurance? This is the very reason that inspired the author to write "Why - Us against God?". Unlike other books, the chapters can be read in any order. It is important to the author that we make it our very own journey. The chapters and subchapters are well structured and very easy to follow. Each chapter is a question and approaches various aspects of life - with or without God. Monica Rohrer challenges us to deliberate on these questions head on. The author intends to elicit an awareness that not only can change our own life but also people around us. The personal accounts, insights, poems, colourful analogies as well as Bible quotations and prayers create an easy to read experience. Here are just some of the reviews the author has received: "I have just finished reading your chapters from your book. Wow Wow WOW. It is really well put together and interesting. It put a smile on my face more than once and gave me a real insight of you as a person. I am sure all of those that read this will also agree that the book will have something to offer to every one. Congratulations on your fabulous accomplishment" A.S "Congratulations, Great work I love your personal stories and experiences. They make it all so much more real and tangible." D.S. "I'm not a religious person so I looked at it from a view as an outsider. I must say it did enlighten me and make me think. You can feel and see that it was written with true passion, which the reader can sense. Hard to put down and as a reader it was not only interesting and informative, it gave me a warm fuzzy feeling that created goose bumps. I have learned from it and it sure gave an outlook on life that makes you cherish what you have. Well written good on ya and all the best of luck." S.E. "This is FABULOUS. Great read.

"Love your words I am astounded at the simplicity and endearing nature of your work. I have read the 6 pages which flow very easily. It is written from your heart. Congratulations on your hidden talent " D.C "It has been great to read your manuscript. Fantastic, fresh writing..." P.W. Heaven Where is Heaven I ask? And God answers me: Come to Me Can you hear Me? Can you see My Light? Can you feel My Love? You can come to Me Now Heaven is so close And my soul answers: Yes my Lord, I am here My heart sings your praises Take me by Your hand Jesus, And lead me to Heaven Yes Lord Jesus, I'm here I have found Heaven And my soul sings: By Your Word I live Your Spirit I breathe Your Power is my refuge Your Name is my salvation By Your Word I'm healed Monica M Rohrer 10.06.2016 To find answers, we need to begin by asking. Then our eyes and hearts will be opened to see beyond.
