MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Oscar-winning Mexican film director Alfonso Cuaron challenged President Enrique Pena Nieto to answer tough questions about reforms opening up the state-run energy industry to the private sector, in a letter published by national newspapers on Monday.
The reforms, approved late last year, will end state oil giant Pemex's [PEMX.UL] monopoly in a bid to boost private investment in the sector. The government hopes it will help growth in Latin America's second biggest economy and increase oil production which has fallen by a quarter since 2004.
