Conversando del gran Luis
García Berlanga y de lo variado y nuevo del cine español, nos reunimos
en el Instituto Cervantes con varios de los directores de las películas
participantes en la vigésima edición de Spanish Cinema Now del Lincoln
Center. Se habló sobre el por qué Luis García Berlanga - el genio de
cine español de cintas como Welcome Mr. Marshall y The Executioner - es
tan poco conocido en estos lares: gran pregunta sin resolver y que se
busca cambiar un poco con la retrospectiva dedicada a su obra en esta
edición del festival.

También
se tocó la influencia que tendrá la crisis económica en la producción
cinematográfica, las graves dificultades en la red de distribución
cinematográfica en América Latina y España a manos de los grandes de
Hollywood, el nuevo mercado Latino de los Estados Unidos, su potencial y
carencias en cuanto a conección con el público y la necesidad de un
mercadeo serio y de más envergadura. Inclusive se mencionó la creación
de un teatro exclusivamente dedicado al cine latino como algo necesario
en una ciudad como NYC con un 30% de población latina o, más aún, se
llamó a la exploración de la Red, Pay Per View y métodos similares como
estratégia central en estos tiempos de rápido cambio tecnológico.
