San Antonio Rep. Castro submits 25 Latino films to Library of Congress

U.S. Rep. Joaquin Castro on Thursday released his third annual list of Latino films submitted for inclusion in the National Film Registry, among them favorites such as Blood In, Blood Out and Like Water for Chocolate. After soliciting recommendations earlier this summer, the San Antonio Democrat's office says it received hundreds of suggestions through various social media platforms. The list was then whittled down to 25 Latino films spanning cinema classics to groundbreaking modern selections, which Castro asked the Library of Congress to enshrine in its registry.
