EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Academy Poster for Herbert Kline's groundbreaking documentary, "The Forgotten Village" (1941), co-written by none other than the legendary John Steinbeck. Set in Mexico, specifically Santiago, this film takes us on a mesmerizing journey into an often overlooked village and its resilient inhabitants. The poster itself is a work of art, capturing the essence of this thought-provoking documentary. The vibrant colors leap off the page, drawing you into a world filled with rich cultural heritage and untold stories. It serves as a visual gateway to an extraordinary cinematic experience that challenges our preconceived notions about rural life. "The Forgotten Village" stands as a testament to Kline and Steinbeck's shared vision of shedding light on forgotten communities struggling against poverty and isolation. Through their collaboration, they crafted a poignant narrative that seamlessly blends fiction with reality, offering viewers an intimate glimpse into the lives of those living in Santiago. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from the British Film Institute collection, we are reminded of cinema's power to educate and inspire empathy within us all. It serves as both a historical artifact and an invitation to explore worlds beyond our own understanding. Let this image transport you back in time to 1941 when "The Forgotten Village" first graced screens worldwide – igniting conversations about social inequality that still resonate today.
