Stewart & Mitchum: The Two Faces of America
Self
With his naïve air, his rangy and reassuring silhouette, James Stewart symbolizes success, someone who everybody wants to look like. Behind his legendary nonchalance, Robert Mitchum is the figure of the bad boy, the kind-hearted hooligan who anyone would like to have for accomplice. What is the legacy left by these two big myths of the Hollywood cinema and in which way they fed the American dream?

El imperio de los sueños. La historia de Star Wars
Self - Professor and Cultural Historian
Star Wars cambió para siempre la manera de hacer, ver y oir el cine, transformó al propio Hollywood e influyó en toda una generación. Este documental de dos horas y media de duración revela el trasfondo de la serie de películas independientes con más éxito de la historia. Es la saga de un “outsider” de Hollywood llamado George Lucas, y de una serie de películas de bajo presupuesto, hechas realidad a base de trabajo y dedicación, que reescribió la reglas de la cinematografía. Es la historia de un cineasta independiente que tuvo que innovar e inventar una forma completamente nueva de crear películas.

"An underground revolutionary group struggles against internal strife to stage urban guerilla attacks against a fictionalized fascist regime in the United States. Interspersed throughout the narrative are rhetorical sequences that explain the philosophy of radical action and restrain the melodrama inherent in the thriller genre." Written by Laurence Kardish, Museum of Modern Art
