Director amanece que no es poco

amanece, que no es poco español

Una inteligentísima comedia surrealista española de finales de los ochenta que simplemente no se puede volver a contar. El surrealismo distorsiona la realidad hasta el punto de ruptura, hasta lo absurdo e imposible, y nos pone en situación de reírnos de nosotros mismos al mismo tiempo que expone los estereotipos, cuestiona las normas aceptadas y muestra la verdad suprimida detrás de las historias oficiales. A cada paso esta película es una crítica feroz a la España de la dictadura del general Franco (1939-1976), pero igualmente una aguda crítica en profundidad a la España contemporánea en la que todo cambió para que nada cambiara. Todo es igual que antes, pero con otros nombres. Aun prescindiendo del nivel de crítica política y social, se trata de una comedia muy divertida, y tristemente infravalorada, con innumerables giros demenciales, situaciones surrealistas y analogías universales que pueden aplicarse a muchas sociedades contemporáneas. Aquellos que no hablen español se verán presionados para comprender todos los juegos de palabras, y aquellos que no estén familiarizados con la situación y los acontecimientos en España se verán desafiados a entender todas las metáforas, analogías, hipérboles y chistes sarcásticos relacionados con el contexto español. En cualquier caso, merece la pena ver esta película porque va mucho más allá de cualquier comedia habitual.

Hepatitis from eating raw clams and other anecdotes of the filmA film as surreal as this one had anecdotes to match, as evidenced by the following vicissitudes:_ José Luis Cuerda could not attend the premiere of the film at the Gran Hotel cinema in Albacete in 1988 because he caught hepatitis «eating some raw clams in Salamanca», explained the film director several times. «From Albacete he went to the Proyecciones cinema in Madrid, where he only lasted a month because they said that the films in that cinema had to gross a million and a half pesetas a week, Cuerda said at the time. On the third or fourth week, when it had grossed one million two hundred thousand, they took it out to put in ‘Presidente por accidente’, by Paul Mazurksy. «It made 350,000 pesetas the first week, but they kept it because it was American and from the same distributor,» said the director of ‘Amanece que no es poco’ (Dawn That Is No Small Thing). They described it as «bullshit».  – Horrible», was the adjective used by Cuerda to define the shooting, which took place in six weeks of a hot summer in which the actors went back and forth to Madrid, by train, by car. «And they were very helpful in the village,» said the director.
