"Ultimately, this is a successful piece of work and should have a wide readership in Area Studies, Film Studies, and Cultural Studies ... . It will mainly be suitable for postgraduate studies and will be of interest to all academics in Film Studies, Spanish and Latin American Studies, Cultural Studies, and Caribbean Studies. The book is coherent and very well researched ... the quality of writing is high. ... the book is rigorous, making a valuable addition to the field." (Guy Baron, New West Indian Guide, Vol. 96 (3-4), September, 2022)
