Description

This is the first genre study of child-starred cinemas from Spain. It illuminates continuities in the political use of the child protagonist in over fifty years of Spanish cinema and how the child-starred genres deploy the concept of childhood to retrospectively define the nation and its future. From Francoist popular to oppositional auteur films, and including Spanish and Latin American cinema, this monograph examines commonalities in aesthetics, narratives and genre functions. It demonstrates the impact of these narratives within Spanish film history and Francoist biopolitics, as well as providing a broader transatlantic perspective on the genre in select productions from Chile and Argentina. In-depth inquiry within its pages examines films by Pedro Almodóvar, Antonio del Amo, Montxo Armendáriz, Benjamín Ávila, Juan Antonio Bayona, José Luis Cuerda, Guillermo del Toro, Víctor Erice, Manuel Gutiérrez Aragón, Arantxa Lazkano, Luis Lucía, Paula Markovtich, Javier Ruiz Caldera, Carlos Saura, Imanol Uribe, Ladislao Vajda, Agustí Villaronga, and Andrés Wood. Los dos cines con niño es el primer estudio de género fílmico de los cines con niño. Ilumina el uso político del protagonista infantil durante más de cincuenta años en el cine de España para definir el pasado, presente y futuro de la nación. Partiendo del cine popular franquista y los filmes autoriales oposicionales, esta monografía examina los puntos de contacto en las estéticas, narrativas y funciones de género cinematográfico del cine español de ayer y hoy y del cine en español de Latinoamérica. Demuestra el impacto del dialogismo de estas narrativas dentro de la historia del cine español y de la biopolítica franquista y proporciona una perspectiva transatlántica más amplia al indagar sobre el género fílmico de producciones puntuales de Chile y Argentina.
