La ópera prima de Lexi Alexander, proyecta el os- curo y violento mundo de los fanáticos del futbol, pe- ro también desarrolla te- mas de trascendencia como la amistad, lealtad, honor y determinación. En la cinta, cuyo título en inglés es “Green street hooli- gans”, destaca la participa- ción de Wood que con histo- rias y personajes totalmente incomparables en su trayec- toria cinematográfica de- muestra su capacidad actoral.

En declaraciones a la prensa, Ochoa, quien se negaba a platicar sobre el tema pues deseaba que fuera una sorpresa, co- mentó que efectivamente él ya se en- cuentra grabando las nuevas escenas de la telenovela. “Ya hay una familia protagonista que son Los Sánchez, yo sólo voy a hacerle la vida imposible a ellos”, indicó el actor. El histrión, quien dijo desconocer cuándo se comenzarán a transmitir estos capítulos, aseguró que no estaba entre sus planes aceptar este proyec- to, sin embargo ante la insistencia de Televi- sión Azteca aceptó, pues tiene un compromi- so amistoso con la empresa. Expresó que ya ha grabado algunos ca- pítulos de la historia y reconoce que ha sido una grata experiencia reencontrarse en es- cena con su amigo Luis Felipe Tovar, por- que ya tenía rato que no trabajaban juntos. Por otra parte, explicó que su voz dará vida a un malvado monstruo en la produc- ción cinematográfica peruana “Dragones: destino de fuego”, con la que quedó sor- prendido por la calidad de la animación. Comentó que está basada en una obra del economista y autor peruano Hernán Garrido-Lecca, quien también escribió la historia original que luego inspiró la reali- zación de “Piratas en el Callao”..

  • Konrad ZYSKO GLORIFICATION of VIOLENCE in BRITISH FILMS
    ZESZYTY NAUKOWE UNIWERSYTETU RZESZOWSKIEGO SERIA FILOLOGICZNA ZESZYT 69/2011 STUDIA ANGLICA RESOVIENSIA 8 Konrad ZYSKO GLORIFICATION OF VIOLENCE IN BRITISH FILMS DEPICTING FOOTBALL HOOLIGANISM Scholars and social scientists have been trying to elucidate hooligans' motivations for violence for years. At the same time the press, radio and television have been attempting to raise the public awareness of the hooligan phenomenon. Out of the three media it is the film, "medium that has produced the most brutal, macabre, bloody and excessive scenes of violence, and to which controversy about such representations inevitably returns” (Carter and Weaver 2003: 42) seems to be the most popular tool for the depiction of hooligans. It is also film that seems to remain rather equivocal both in the approach to the phenomenon and in the assessment of its ramifications. As a result, productions which rely heavily on bona fide, gory and hooliganism-related scenes were bom as an answer to both the huge concern and fandom provoked by football hooligans. The aim of this paper is to show that British films depicting football hooliganism have a tendency to glamorize violence or lend justification to some forms of violent behaviour. This propensity and its instances which I am going to take under scrutiny are analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively in films such as The Firm (1988), I.D. (1995), The Football Factory (2004) and Green Street Hooligans (2005). These are feature film productions that deal with the hooligan culture per se, with none or hardly any instances of football-playing scenes, thus putting the sports aspect into the shade or even getting rid of it completely.
