  • Operación Final – Operation Finale
    DERECHO Y CULTURA OPERACIÓN FINAL – OPERATION FINALE. Por: Juan Sebastián Murthe Cárdenas. Película estadounidense del año 2018. Dirigida por Chris Weitz. Producida por Fred Berger, Oscar Isaac, Brian Kavanaugh Jones y Jason Spire, con guion escrito por Matthew Orton. Protagonizada por el actor Oscar Isaac, junto con Ben Kingsley, Mélanie Laurent, Lior Raz, Nick Croll, entre otros. 68 A menudo se dice, que un libro no debe ser juzgado por su portada, pues bien esta es una de esas ocasiones en que ese refrán se puede predicar también de algunas películas. A lo largo del último cuarto del siglo XX y lo trascurrido del siglo XXI, uno de los puntos clave del séptimo arte, ha sido el de realizar filmes basados en hechos reales, sobretodo de eventos históricos de gran calibre como las guerras mundiales, unos con mayor éxito y fidelidad histórica que otros. En el marco de este uso histórico en la Revista Iter Ad Veritatem, ISSN 1909-9843 / Enero - Diciembre 2020, Vol. 18 DERECHO Y CULTURA filmografía, llega esta película, que básicamente se ambienta en la década inmediatamente posterior a la Segunda Guerra Mundial y los tan conocidos Juicios de Núremberg donde fueron condenadas varias piezas importantes del movimiento Nazi alemán; narra la historia de cómo algunos miembros del cuerpo de inteligencia de Israel, llevaron a cabo en territorio argentino la captura del líder nazi Adolf Eichmann, quien se refugiara en dicho país al terminar la guerra, para evitar ir a juicio por la comisión de diferentes crímenes. Esta, en la opinión de este servidor, no es una película más de tipo cliché sobre el movimiento nazi, goza de un trasfondo importante en materia de Derecho Penal y Derecho Internacional, este último sobre todo en lo referente a la autonomía y soberanía de los Estados, que concomitantemente implica la no intromisión en su territorio sin fines legalmente autorizados o sin el cumplimiento de los protocolos legalmente establecidos.

Eichmann is already under arrest in Israel and will shortly be placed on trial in Israel under the terms of the law for the trial of Nazis and their collaborators. In the cabinet meeting immediately preceding this announcement, Ben-Gurion’s ministers had expressed their astonishment and curiosity.

  • Ronald Davis Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts
    Oral History Collection on the Performing Arts in America Southern Methodist University The Southern Methodist University Oral History Program was begun in 1972 and is part of the University’s DeGolyer Institute for American Studies. The goal is to gather primary source material for future writers and cultural historians on all branches of the performing arts- opera, ballet, the concert stage, theatre, films, radio, television, burlesque, vaudeville, popular music, jazz, the circus, and miscellaneous amateur and local productions. The Collection is particularly strong, however, in the areas of motion pictures and popular music and includes interviews with celebrated performers as well as a wide variety of behind-the-scenes personnel, several of whom are now deceased. Most interviews are biographical in nature although some are focused exclusively on a single topic of historical importance. The Program aims at balancing national developments with examples from local history. Interviews with members of the Dallas Little Theatre, therefore, serve to illustrate a nation-wide movement, while film exhibition across the country is exemplified by the Interstate Theater Circuit of Texas. The interviews have all been conducted by trained historians, who attempt to view artistic achievements against a broad social and cultural backdrop. Many of the persons interviewed, because of educational limitations or various extenuating circumstances, would never write down their experiences, and therefore valuable information on our nation’s cultural heritage would be lost if it were not for the S.M.U. Oral History Program. Interviewees are selected on the strength of (1) their contribution to the performing arts in America, (2) their unique position in a given art form, and (3) availability.
