Wise and J. Robbins, 1961), Los Tarantos (F. Rovira-Beleta, 1963) and No somos ni Romeo ni Julieta (A. Paso, 1969) [1] Par Víctor Huertas-Martín Publication en ligne le 07 décembre 2020 Résumé This article examines the critical reception of the film adaptation of West Side Story (Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise, 1961) in Spanish culture and cinematography. It looks into two other screen versions of Romeo and Juliet: Los Tarantos (Francesc Rovira-Beleta, 1963) and No somos ni Romeo ni Julieta (Alfonso Paso, 1969). West Side Story remains in the Spanish cultural memory as a filmic event associated with the arrival of foreign influence amidst national-catholic dictatorship. I will use the variables “place” and “space,” which distinguish, on one hand, proper orders established by authority and, on the other hand, areas transformable by interactions and changes, and will refer to Shakespeare’s presentist criticism, French cultural theory and French Film Theory as lenses. I will examine West Side Story’s 1963 Spanish reception material as well as its possible interactions with the webwork of cultural forces in operation amidst the 1960s Spanish culture. Then, I will examine the mise en scenes of Los Tarantos and No somos ni Romeo ni Julieta focusing on the forms in which characters, places and camerawork contribute to create spaces, i.e. places permeable to change and transformation through human interaction.

Macarena Navarro Pablo Universidad de Sevilla Enviado: 16-01-2015 Aceptado: 25-01-2015 Resumen Partiendo del cine como recurso didáctico, en el presente artículo analizamos, ofrecemos datos y hacemos sugerencias para el uso en el aula de la película Los Tarantos , un filme ambientado en el Somorrostro de Barcelona de la década de los sesenta que tiene entre sus protagonistas a Carmen Amaya y a Antonio Gades. Palabras clave: Flamenco, baile, etnia gitana, Somorrostro, Carmen Amaya, Antonio Gades, Sara Lezana, Antonia la Singla. Abstract Using cinema as a methodological resource, the present paper analyzes Francisco Rovira Beleta’s film Los Tarantos , offers information about it and proposes activities to be done while and after watching it. The film located in the marginal district of Somorrostro in Barcelona has Carmen Amaya, Antonio Gades and Sara Lezana among its main characters. 101 © SERVICIO DE PUBLICACIONES DE LA UNIVERSIDAD DE MURCIA http://revistas.um.es/flamenco 1. El cine, un recurso didáctico innovador Siempre se ha dicho que una imagen vale más que mil palabras. Y, ¿qué decir de una imagen que habla y se mueve?, que eso es ni más ni menos el cine. Recientemente, se han constituido grupos de investigación que tienen como fin explorar nuevos campos para la didáctica de diversas materias a distintos niveles educativos 1. Esas son nuestras inquietudes. En este sentido, estamos plenamente de acuerdo con Pereira Domínguez cuando dice: El cine, y más el de autor, es una traslación constatada de un considerable poder sociocultural, artístico y humano, porque es capaz de acoger la más impensable diversidad de sentimientos, deseos, acontecimientos y percepciones.

  • 1 Shakespeare and Film
    Shakespeare and Film: A Bibliographic Index (from Film to Book) Jordi Sala-Lleal University of Girona [email protected] Research into film adaptation has increased very considerably over recent decades, a development that coincides with postmodern interest in cultural cross-overs, artistic hybrids or heterogeneous discourses about our world. Film adaptation of Shakespearian drama is at the forefront of this research: there are numerous general works and partial studies on the cinema that have grown out of the works of William Shakespeare. Many of these are very valuable and of great interest and, in effect, form a body of work that is hybrid and heterogeneous. It seems important, therefore, to be able to consult a detailed and extensive bibliography in this field, and this is the contribution that we offer here. This work aims to be of help to all researchers into Shakespearian film by providing a useful tool for ordering and clarifying the field. It is in the form of an index that relates the bibliographic items with the films of the Shakespearian corpus, going from the film to each of the citations and works that study it. Researchers in this field should find this of particular use since they will be able to see immediately where to find information on every one of the films relating to Shakespeare. Though this is the most important aspect, this work can be of use in other ways since it includes an ordered list of the most important contributions to research on the subject, and a second, extensive, list of films related to Shakespeare in order of their links to the various works of the canon.

  • La Imagen De La Periferia Marginal De Barcelona En Los Tarantos*
    La imagen de la periferia marginal * de Barcelona en Los Tarantos Iván Villarmea Álvarez Abstract – Resumen Este artículo tiene como objeto realizar un análisis textual de la película Los Tarantos, dirigida por Francisco Rovira-Beleta en 1963, tomándola como testimonio histórico para conocer la imagen que registró de la ciudad de Barcelona en el momento de su rodaje. Más en concreto, el trabajo se centra en la representación de las chabolas del Somorrostro y de Montjuïc, dos barrios periféricos marginales habitados por personas de etnia gitana. La idea es contrastar la información urbanística y sociológica que contiene la película con otra clase de fuentes documentales, explorando la utilidad que puede tener el cine como documento audiovisual específico para conocer el paisaje arquitectónico del pasado. Además, el texto incluye también algunos apuntes sobre la imagen antropológica que transmite Los Tarantos de los gitanos y sobre las distintas opiniones críticas que mereció desde el momento de su estreno. Introducción. Una lectura historiográfica del cine de no-ficción contemporáneo <<Filma este lugar. Pronto no quedará nada>>: es la conciencia la que habla, la certeza de la destrucción, la nostalgia. Es un obrero del distrito industrial de Tie Xi, en la ciudad de Shenyang, al norte de China, en Manchuria. Ese obrero sabe que el lugar en el que vivió y trabajó tiene sus días contados, y por eso le pide al cineasta Wang Bing que registre ese paisaje con su cámara. El resultado es Tie Xie Qu: West of the Tracks (Id., Wang Bing, 2003), un documental estructurado en tres largas partes (Rust, Remnants y Rails), de casi diez horas de duración en total, que documenta la decadencia y la desmaterialización de ese lugar.

A loving couple learn that their two adopted nieces have brought a dark secret into their home in this foreboding domestic thriller from executive producer Guillermo del Toro (Pan's Labyrinth). For more information go to the Landmark Theaters Website The Impossible Dir. Juan Antonio Bayona – Spain | 2012 | 114 min. Cast. Ewan McGregor, Naomi Watts. Henry (Ewan McGregor) and Maria (Naomi Watts) have taken their three young sons to Thailand to spend Christmas 2004 at an idyllic beachfront resort. The family is playing outside by the pool when a tsunami hits the shore, laying waste to everything in its path. Spanish director Juan Antonio Bayona utilizes 3D sound technology — although the film is in 2D — and seamless effects to immerse the viewer in the terrifying life-and-death struggle to survive the rush of water and debris. However, the film is as intimate as it is epic; at times, it feels inspired by the tone Steven Spielberg strikes in films like JURASSIC PARK and WAR OF THE WORLDS. Based on a true story, THE IMPOSSIBLE gives us the terrifying spectacle and emotional drama of a family trying to find each other — dead or alive — among the thousands of strangers searching for each other in the aftermath of a disaster.
