Abstract
AbstractThis article examines Natalia Oreiro, a film and television star who has contributed to representations of on-screen queer subjectivities in Latin America. I examine her film Miss Tacuarembó (Sastre 2010) as a musical that resignifies heteronormative notions of gender commonly found in popular family film genres. I consider the film’s layered intertexts such as choreography, pop songs, and telenovelas, as well as the role of Oreiro in resignifying those intertextual codes as signs of queerness. This article thus reveals the ways in which intertexts disrupt this formulaic family and young adult film.
