The golden age of Mexican cinema was characterized by reiterated use of stereotypes. Foreigners represented the “other”, by contrast of which Mexican identity could be established.

They were represented more in terms of culture than politics or history and, at this time of constant migratory flux in Mexico, would become the model for the abstract immigrant attempting to get established.
