Cisco Kid: American Hero, Hispanic Roots - Softcover
The Cisco Kid: American Hero, Hispanic Roots expands on Francis Nevins's 1998 book, The Films of The Cisco Kid. Retaining the original's thorough, chronologically ordered study of the filmic Cisco Kid cycle and its in-depth analysis of the Cisco phenomenon, The Cisco Kid adds a Hispanic sensibility to the history of the character in United States film. Despite the Cisco Kid's initial creation outside the Hispanic world by such mainstream writers and filmmakers as O. Henry and Webster Cullison, by 1929 with the first Cisco sound film, In Old Arizona, this fictional character was endowed with a Latino persona that it has invariably retained both in mainstream American culture and in Hispanic culture within the United States and elsewhere. Including film stills, lobby cards, and posters, this lavishly illustrated coffee-table book is sure to delight anyone interested in the Cisco Kid.

Book Description paperback. Condition: Neu. Neu -Cisco Kid, der hispanische Caballero und Westernheld wurde im Jahre 1907 von O. Henry erfunden. Nach den Anfängen als skrupelloser Serienkiller wandelte sich sein Charakter und er wurde in späteren Interpretationen zu einem positiven Helden. Seit der Stummfilmära spielt Cisco Kid auch seine Rolle auf der Leinwand, 1929 entsteht der Tonfilm »In Old Arizona«. Auch zahlreiche Comics, Bücher und Plakate machen den mexikanischen Revolverhelden zu einer Berühmtheit bis heute. Der vorliegende, aufwendig gestaltete Band präsentiert Film Stills, Lobbykarten, Plakate und andere Devotionalien zu Cisco Kid. Der Autor zeigt vor allem die hispanischen Wurzeln des trotz allem typisch amerikanischen Helden auf.
