Arturo Ripstein began his career as assistant director (unbilled) of
Luis Buñuel in Ángel exterminador, El (1962). His father, Alfredo
Ripstein, Jr. produced his first film, a western written by Gabriel
García Márquez titled Tiempo de morir (1965). Ripstein filmography is
very praised in Mexico and Europe. He is considered the best Mexican
director alive. Many of his films are related with an unique subject:
the loneliness of souls. So, his style re flects his main concerns.
Ripstein's films are somber, slow and depressive.
