The Golden Age of Mexican Cinema (Spanish: Época de Oro del Cine Mexicano) is a historical period in the cinema of Mexico that lasted from 1936 to 1956.[1] It was marked by the production of highly praised films that shaped Mexican national identity and culture. Films such as Los Olvidados by Luis Buñuel explored Mexico's social realities and left a lasting impact on audiences, both domestically and internationally.
During World War II, film industries in the US and Europe declined due to material shortages, as resources like celluloid were redirected to support the arms industry. This shift created an opportunity for Mexico to expand its commercial film production for Mexican and Latin American markets. The era fostered the rise of influential directors such as Emilio Fernández and Luis Buñuel, while elevating actors like María Félix, Pedro Infante, and Dolores del Río to international fame.
The period also played a role in introducing Norteño music to Chilean popular culture.[2]
