| Abstract | Mexican movies of the Golden Age made popular the image of women who participated in the Mexican Revolution with the figure of “Adelita”; a hackneyed and repetitive representation of values such as bravery, abnegation, marriage and motherhood. Nevertheless, there are few excpetions, like La negra Angustias, directed by Matilde Landeta in 1949. Angustias, the protagonist, different as she was a coronel in one of Zapata’s troops with ideals such as justice and liberty for the poor. She was also reluctant to marry and to accept the oppression of any man, showing behavior conventionally considered to be masculine. Regarding the cinematographic environment, I rescue the vision of a woman director, a pioneer in Mexican movies, who went against the flow of female stereotypes with the intention of redressing the role of women in Mexican in History. |
