Old but nice: El verdugo 1963



The public executioner (original title: El verdugo) is co-produced by the pic Spain and Italia , directed by Luis García Berlanga and discharged in 1963 .José Luis, Associate in Nursing funeral director meets Amadeo, Associate in Nursing public executioner in retirement. The latter has his female offspring, Carmen. kids unify and settle within the flat Administration grants Amadeo. frightened of being deported, José Luis settle for, not merely, to succeed his father-in functions. Summoned to Mallorca for its initial run, José Luis swear to try and do it once more. Amadeo replies: "I too had aforesaid that the primary time! "

My Remarks:
"Punctuated by the ominous sound of the instrument of execution with that we have a tendency to condemned to strangle garrote" , El verdugo is "emblematic painting of Francoist Spain , wherever a normal man (the jack José Luis, vie by Nino Manfredi ) is diode, unavoidably, to the horror. [...] Rafael Azcona Associate in Nursingd Luis García Berlanga create an innocent person a victim of the darkest state mechanisms - a contradiction that gave them the medium immortality. "
Censorship Francisco Franco lobbied to ban the film, however because it was the results of a co-production with the Italia , he was jubilantly given to the urban center fete in 1963 . There, he won a unanimous recognition and a reward from the criticism . "The public executioner is that the epitome of a visible vogue (that of Berlanga) and narrative (that Azcona) that with humour depicts Spain at the time. "
