Indy shares a few of his favourite Mexican novels, like; Pedro Paramo, Like Water For Chocolate, Hurricane Season, & more. Samantha takes the next step in her Outlander fandom as she begins to read Diana Gabaldon's novels, and we prepare for next week's feature; the Italian classic Cinema Paradiso!  I Love This You Should Too is hosted by Samantha and Indy Randhawa Cinema Paradiso is a 1988 coming-of-age comedy-drama film written and directed by Giuseppe Tornatore. Set in a small Sicilian town, the film centres on the friendship between a young boy and an aging projectionist who works at the titular movie theatre. The Italian-French co-production stars Philippe Noiret, Jacques Perrin, Antonella Attili, Pupella Maggio and Salvatore Cascio. The film score was composed by Ennio Morricone and his son, Andrea, marking the beginning of a collaboration between Tornatore and Morricone that lasted until Morricone's death in 2020. Credited with revitalizing Italy's film industry, Cinema Paradiso has been cited as one of the greatest films of all time, and a world cinema classic.[3] The ending is considered among the greatest endings in film history. It was a commercial success, and won several awards, including the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film[4] and the Cannes Film Festival's Grand Prix. It was nominated for 11 BAFTA Awards and won five; including Best Actor for Philippe Noiret, Best Supporting Actor for Salvatore Cascio, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Foreign Language Film, a record for a foreign language feature until it was broken by All Quiet on the Western Front in 2023.

An angel falls from the heavens with such bad luck that he gets hurt and ends up needing the piety of a child and his family to recover. What no one anticipates is how much they will become fond of each other. In the comments we present today's narrator Valentina Ortiz and the interview with Matthew David Goodwin editor of Latinx Rising: An Anthology of Latinx Science Fiction and Fantasy.

Priscilla Solis Ybarra talks about Latinx Environmentalism and how it differs from white mainstream environmentalism.  Dr. Ybarra is the author of Writing the Goodlife:  Mexican Literature and the Environment.  “Goodlife writing embraces the values of simplicity, sustenance, dignity and respect.  The values in goodlife writing implicitly integrate the natural environment as part of the community, and thus cultivate a life-sustaining ecology for humans.”  Latinx Environmentalism  reflects our lives, our histories, our cultures and provides us with hope for the future of our planet!Support the show (https://www.familiasenaccion.org/donate/)

This year, one of the ten films vying for the Best Picture Oscar award is The Shape of Water, a film by Mexican director Guillermo del Toro. It's safe to say this is the first year that a fishman/woman romance flick has been nominated for Tinselstown's top award, so we sat down with professor Miguel Garcia, an expert on both Mexican Literature and Cinema and Mexican Science Fiction. Spoiler alert.

In The National Body in Mexican Literature: Collective Challenges to Biopolitical Control (Palgrave MacMillan, 2015), Rebecca Janzen explores the complex interaction between the national body created by the rhetoric of the 1910 Mexican revolution and those bodies that did not find a space in the new national project. Through the literary fictional work of Jose Revueltas, Juan Rulfo, Rosario Castellanos, and Vicente Lenero, the book explores the contradictions of the state through the literary representations of people that lived at the margins of its ideology. Drawing on feminist and disability studies, Janzen explores unusual bodies—peasants, prostitutes, indigenous people, and garbage sorters, among others—and their intense relationship of control, resistance, and power with the government and its bureaucracy. In these literary works, illness, body fluids, or bodies reduced to their basic functions demonstrate the inconsistencies of a national project that failed to fulfill promises such as agrarian reform, health services or labor rights. Each chapter of the book shows an analysis deeply engaged with the profound changes of almost three decades. The characters created by Revueltas, Rulfo, Castellanos, and Lenero span from the 1940s to the end of the 1960s, which allows Janzen to show not only the construction of a national discourse and its flaws, but also its interaction with other important institutions, such as the Catholic church.
