Ahora que se acerca la Navidad me decido a escribir sobre la película que a mi entender plasma de manera más real uno de los typical and topical aspects of this time of year, the charity now renamed solidardidad, this film is none other than Placido directed by Luis G ª Berlanga and written by Rafael Azcona, dated 1961. In the ensemble cast include Cassen, José Luis López Vázquez, Elvira and Manuel Alexandre Quintillá. Lady: So we went to a dinner with Carmen Sevilla hey ... "You sing?
Poor: Is what song but not eat dinner?
The background of the work part of a real campaign of the Franco regime in the provinces, designed for on Christmas Eve, " Feel poor at your table ", which was auctioned to a movie star (three to four) for a charitable cause, taking that way, to that dinner at home and at the same acquired a poor time for the same company. 
Plácido Alonso (CASS) is the driver motorcar that it proclaims the campaign during the parade, and which must pay the first letter in the bank, but everything turns into a long and "tragicomic odyssey to pay it. In this particular cross our hero is always accompanied by Gabino Quintanilla (coordinator of the committee), who will be driving it through the frame to their own benefit in most cases, showing us the ins and outs of the kind of journalism as well or at the time, through the pen-pushers from banks or notaries, reaching to the very suburbs. While this is the thread of the story, the turning point comes when one of
the poor who dined at home a rich, sick and in this way further concerns shine and appearance of the class "wealthy", all masterfully directed by Berlanga that in this situation is able to place on stage until about fifteen actors in one of those perfectly orchestrated chaos both liked.
This was the first collaboration between Berlanga and Azcona and the emphasis will not do much because I prefer to devote a separate chapter to each. This tandem (but also collaborated on the screenplay José Luis Colina and José Luis Font) were obtained for both the Oscar nominations as the Golden Palm at Cannes and has won several awards at the Cinema Writers Circle or Union show.
Although one might classify black humor, which did not like Don Luis, is rather a look at the Spain's picaresque classic drinker among other Quevedo.
Censorship undertook to rob him of his original title was the name of that campaign, a poor feel on your table, it was the Rafael Azcona who gave the name to the protagonist and who decided to name it so.
Perhaps the highlight of the film is its high quality choral interpretation ( Quintillá Elvira, Jose Luis Lopez Vasquez, Cassen, Antonio Ferrandis, Manuel Alexandre, Agustín González Fernando Delgado, Mari Carmen Yepes ) without fuss and goes straight for the jugular so enveloping likely in at the stress which is a Christmas Eve, and identifying yourself always with this uncertainty of thread, do they work the same way companies in the dates as mentioned? ... All cash in 1 hour and 20 minutes, how is this done? , this writer did the best that Spain has given so far.
