Sara Montiel [Spanish]

By Israel Rolón-Barada

What is Sara Montiel's cultural legacy in popular music and Spanish-American cinema? What led her to become an icon, a legend and a myth? Saritisima is part of the Spanish cultural imaginary of the 20th century, as she achieved international reach as a representative of Spanish culture. Through her musical and cinematographic production she was able to fight against the adversities she would have had to face. The diversity of socio-political situations, economic or academic limitations, were not an impediment to achieving his goals. This book analyses her career, how she broke barriers in Spain, Latin America and the United States from the 1950s onwards, as well as her contribution to Spanish popular culture, of which she served as an ambassador. Ten years after her death, the example of Sara Montiel, muse of the LGTBIQ+ community and a woman ahead of her time, remains more relevant than ever.
