Abstract

The historical social experience of cinema attendance in Monterrey (Nuevo Leon, Mexico) during the period from 1930 to1960 is analyzed in this article, based on interviews with 28 informants who were over 65 years old. The results highlight the historical importance of movie theaters, American and Mexican films and screen stars in the personal, family and collective life of Monterrey, within the historical context of its transformation into one of the largest and most industrialized cities in the country.
