Reviews
"Samanta Ordóñez offers a lucid critique of complex issues such as machismo, race, class and their representations in contemporary Mexican cinema … Ordóñez contributes to the study of masculinities by exposing the power structures that are constantly seeking control over the bodies of middle- and lower-class racialized men. Her analysis of malformed masculinities promotes the questioning of unfair, biased, or silenced representations of different minorities in Mexican cinema: another indicator of a defective modernity whose archetypal models have repeatedly failed to adequately represent Mexico or Latin America." — Bulletin of Spanish Visual Studies
