FROM PEDRO ARMENDARIZ AND PEDRO INFANTE TO PEDRO PARAMO. THE STRUGGLE FOR THE MEXICAN COLLECTIVE IMAGINARY

Resumen:
The present article stands on the idea that Juan Rulfo's novel Pedro
Paramo is built on one of the formulas of the Golden Age of Mexican
cinema - that is to say, a powerful and authoritarian man that faces the
burden of a powerful and yet untamable love. Based on that evidence, the
author unfolds the hypothesis that Rulfo's novel holds a subtle critique
to the limitations and liberties taken by Mexican cinema while
simultaneously creating a deeper and much more realistic impact on the
true causes of the crisis of Mexican countryside and Mexican society.
