Juan Carlos: Did you see That Damned Rib Rafael Belvedere: I dont watch Argentine movies. Refreshments will be available in our licensed cafe/bar. Spanish: Al final, las bodas de oro tienen lugar. Indeed, the central character could quite easily be interpreted as a metaphor for the state of a nation teetering on the brink.Įl hijo de la novia will be introduced by Adam Feinstein, who has interviewed both Juan José Campanella and Norma Aleandro. But this film has a very Latin American feel to it. ![]() Some critics have seen similarities with Woody Allen’s Manhattan (1979), which is also about a middle-aged man’s search for self. Campanella’s direction is admirable and so is the witty screenplay by the talented Fernando Castets, who has known Campanella since they were students together. A secondary storyline concerns the bride of the title, Rafael’s mother, an elderly woman suffering from Alzheimer’s disease (in an exquisite performance by Norma Aleandro, largely based on observations of Campanella’s own mother). Vive a la sombra de su padre, se siente culpable porque rara vez visita a su anciana madre, su ex esposa dice que no pasa suficiente tiempo con su hija y aún tiene que adquirir un compromiso con su novia. In this movie, Darín plays a 42-year-old divorced, workaholic restaurant owner, Rafael, who decides that what he really wants to do is to run away from everything and everyone. Rafael piensa que las cosas deberan irle mejor: dedica 24 horas al da a su restaurante, est divorciado, ve muy poco a su hija, no tiene amigos y elude com. But arguably, none can boast the delicious combination of tenderness and humour that threads throughout El hijo de la novia. Darin and the director, Juan José Campanella, are a formidable team: they have made three other brilliant films together: El mismo amor, la misma lluvia (Same Love, Same Rain) (1999), Luna de Avellaneda (Moon of Avellaneda) (2004) and the Oscar-winning El secreto de sus ojos (The Secret in Their Eyes) (2009). This magnificent comedy, made in 2001 at the height of Argentina’s economic crisis and nominated for an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, stars three of Argentina’s greatest living actors: Ricardo Darín, Héctor Alterio and Norma Aleandro. ![]()
