Changes in the Third Edition: -Five new films: La misma luna, Arráncame la vida, Machuca, Flores de otro mundo, and Volver. -Five new readings with activities in the section Más allá de la pantalla for the five new films. -Introductory information about each film, its actors and directors, has been updated. -The exercises and activities have been re-assessed throughout and in some cases revised.
