Last episode I asked Dr. Teresa Van Hoy from St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas, to go scene by scene with me through Maria Louise Bemberg’s Immortal story about Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz titled “I the Worst of All.” We had such a stimulating conversation I asked her back for a couple of hours so we could discuss important topics as racism and John Ford’s The Searchers, Confederates in film and in stature, and being good Texans we take a deep dive into Mexican and Texas history and film. Teresa Van Hoy teaches history at St. Mary’s University in San Antonio, Texas, just a couple of miles away from the Alamo. Look in my notes to for links to her book and Ellen Brodsky’s film “25 Texans in the Land of Lincoln.” If you need to reach me you can email me at thatdylandavis@gmail.com.
