I know Heitor Villa-Lobos composed some film scores; if his film music is as good as his concert music, he should be among the contenders. :-)
Here's one, from a 1936 film, THE DISCOVERY OF BRAZIL.

Speaking of Chilean directors, how's the music situation in the films of Alejandro Jodorowsky or Patricio Guzmán? I've always liked their movies, but can't remember much of the music. THE PEARL BUTTON a couple of years ago was excellent.
Guzmán didn't use original score in some of his early works (the three volumes of The Battle of Chile), but more recently he worked with Jorge Arriagada (chilean composer, based in Paris) in Salvador Allende and the composer duet Miranda & Tobar in Nostalgia of the Light and The Pearl Button. Honestly I don't remember much about those scores, but Miranda & Tobar are prolific local composers, they do a lot of local productions. I think one of their best works is Machuca (the film had some showings around the world when it was released in 2004).
The case of Jodorowsky is more complex. He scored himself some of his earlier films (El Topo, Holy Mountain), maybe with some help. Then he used Simon Boswell in Santa Sangre. In his most recent films, he worked with his son Adan Jorodowsky (aka Adanowsky), who has a solid career as a musician (mostly alternative rock), but not really scoring films. I haven't heard those, so I don't know how it sounds.
Thanks a lot for the information!

Well if we're cheating, then there are really so many awesome hispanic-flavored Goldsmith scores...Caboblanco is only the tip of the iceberg.
