Alton's Paradox: Foreign Film Workers and the Emergence of Industrial Cinema in Latin America - SUNY series in Latin American Cinema
Nicolas Poppe
Alton's Paradox builds upon extensive archival and primary research, but uses a single text as its point of departure--a 1934 article by the Hungarian American cinematographer John Alton in the Hollywood-published International Photographer. Writing from Argentina, Alton paradoxically argues of cine nacional, The possibilities are enormous, but not until foreign technicians will take the matter in their hands and with foreign organization will there be local industry. Nicolas Poppe argues that Alton succinctly articulates a line of thought commonly held across Latin America during the early sound period but little explored by scholars: that foreign labor was pivotal to the rise of national film industries. In tracking this paradox from Hollywood to Mexico to Argentina and beyond, Poppe reconsiders a series of notions inextricably tied to traditional film historiography, including authorship, (dis)continuation, intermediality, labor, National Cinema, and transnationalism. Wide-angled views of national film industries complement close-up analyses of the work of José Mojica, Alex Phillips, Juan Orol, Ãngel Mentasti, and Tito Davison.
