European influence mainly Spanish?
According to this article, the main European influence on the country's culture is Spanish. This is not entirely true. Yes, they speak a dialect derived from Spanish, but the buildings, culture, and everything else is mainly British or German in style. Chile has more in common culturally with Australia or Canada than with Peru, Colombia or Mexico. Chileans themselves are mainly from British, French, Basque, Croat and German stock. As 95% of Chileans are exclusively of European descent, the Amerindian elements in mainstream Chilean culture and folklore are nil. The Andean music promoted as "Chilean" music by the tourist industry, interest in Andean music started by Violeta Parra, is of the Aymara communities who were in the altiplano in the north long before Chileans got there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.159.177.93 (talk) 11:44, 28 December 2013 (UTC)
- That is complete absurd! First, about demographics, there are many genetic studies about the composition of Chilean people and the native american component is on average greater than 40% and no study says less than 30%. Second, even so racial categories aren't commonly used in Chile like US, the surveys says at least 30% they recognize themselves as mestizos and at least 6% as native american. So no 95% exclusive european descents. Third, Lizcano 2005 estimates 92% of chilean population are spanish descendents. Sure, there were important migrations from other european countries like germans in the South or british in Valparaiso, but none as important as 300 years of Spanish colonization. Fourth, chilean culture is obviously an hispanic american culture with more relationship with Mexico, Colombia and Peru than Australia. For example, in music, mexican folk music is very popular in chilean rural areas, Colombia's Cumbia is a strong popular dance in all Chile and the national dances of Peru and Chile (Marinera and Cueca) are so similar and so connected. Other example, many chilean foods are commonly in other hispanic american cuisines too, like empanadas, sopaipillas or choripanes. Fifth, the most chilean cities have a spanish colonial urbanism (a grid with a central park and a central catholic temple) and also have hispanic colonial architecture. There are exceptions like Valparaiso, but there are exceptions!. Sixth, andean music has always been the folklore of northern Chile, and also the central and southern Chile's folklore music has strong relationship with folklore music from Peru and Argentina, and obviously because is from common spanish colonial heritage (and in the case of Argentina, common native american heritage too). Also Violeta Parra was chilean folklore's researcher before she was a popular musician and she looks from chileans traditions very far old than her birth. So your comment is complete wrong, except the part we talk a spanish dialect (and because of that, sorry for my rustic english). 186.34.60.123 (talk) 01:30, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Additions to the page
Hello, I just wanted to people know that I am making additions to this page. The additions are going to be on the Cinema and the Rodeo part of this page. Please let me know on what you think and if I can make any changes.
This is what I am going to add:
Cinema
Domestic film production in Chile is still small but dynamic, it has been steadily growing since 1990 and the country now produces about 20 motion pictures annually. The most important filmmakers include Raúl Ruiz (Palomita Blanca), Miguel Littín (El chacal de Nahueltoro), Silvio Caiozzi (Julio comienza en julio), and Andrés Wood (Machuca). Other entertainment includes radio and television with TVN (Television Nacional de Chile) owned but not paid by the government but funding comes from commercial sponsors by private companies and media productions.
Chile's small and steadily growing film industry has had some hard time filming compared to countries like the United States. A lot of the most successful films before the 1960s were imported form the U.S, Europe, and other Latin American countries. With Chile's film industry really not having as much funding , technology, and education to keep up with some of the bigger filmmakers.[1] Despite the small start, in the recent years Chile's filming industry continues to grow. In the early 2000s things started to take a better turn for the industry as a whole. With the Universidad de Valparaíso, Universidad de Chile and Universidad Católica offer careers in cinematography, which means the expansion and establishment of formal instruction in this field after 2004. Also after 2004, Chile's film industry stated the use of digital cameras, which lowered the cost of production. [2]
Rodeo
Rodeo is the second most popular sport in Chile[citation needed]. It was declared the national sport in 1962. It has since thrived, especially in the more rural areas of the country. Chilean rodeo is different from the rodeo found in North America. In Chilean rodeo, a team (called a collera) consisting of two riders (called Huasos) and two horses rides laps around an arena trying to stop a calf, pinning him against massive cushions. Points are earned for every time the steer is properly driven around the corral, with deductions for faults. Rodeos are conducted in a crescent-shaped corral called a medialuna.
Unlike rodeos in other countries, there is no bull riding or using ropes to tie up cattle. And the idea behind the point system in the game is to get a high amount of points. Getting this points takes a high amount of skill. Deductions for faults may included, incorrect maneuvering or the cow escaping.[3] Each pair of Huasos start with 13 points then the deduction system comes into play. Every official rodeo is held over two days, normally Saturdays and Sundays, though occasionally it will be held on Chilean Public holidays.[4]
