Rodriguez-Soltero's LUPE


Lupe

***please note this is film is about Lupe Velez (above) but the famous mexican actress is actually played by travestite, Mario Montez.

LUPE is one of the best films from the New York underground, offering an ecstatic explosion of color, costume, music, camp performance, and complex superimpositions. Rodriguez-Soltero challenges the distinction between high and low culture, demonstrating an interest in popular and classical music, Hollywood gossip, Latin American and Hollywood icons, experimental and popular theater, television, art and underground cinema.
