Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Thrust into the international spotlight in 1966 when his critique of the Franco regime won the Silver Bear at Berlin, Spanish filmmaker Carlos Saura (b. 1932) has remained a prominent figure in global cinema. Best known in the U.S. for his Flamenco trilogy—Blood Wedding, Carmen, and A Love Bewitched—he has also received Oscar nominations for Mama Turns a Hundred, Carmen, and Tango. Saura's films are often ambiguous, controversial, and narratively complex, blending reality with fantasy and memory with hallucination, as seen in works like Cría and Goya in Bordeaux. Carlos Interviews compiles conversations Saura has had in Spain, France, Germany, and Canada, presented in English for the first time. These discussions span his entire career, including his latest film, Buñuel and King Solomon's Table, and delve into his contributions to New Spanish Cinema, his documentaries, dance films, and adaptations of literary works, as well as personal reflections on the Spanish Civil War. The collection also highlights Saura's work as a photographer, opera director, and novelist, and his friendship with filmmaker Luis Buñuel. Through these interviews, Saura reveals his consistent approach to cinema, his role as an auteur, and the innovative principles that shape his creativity.
