Langtext
These brief essays are the result of an investigation I carried out some years ago in the context of a research on cinema and its spectator, under the supervision of María Gabriela Iglesias. The purpose of the project was to broaden the semiotic approach to film analysis based on the contributions of psychoanalysis and philosophy. As a university professor of Semiotics of Cinema, I observed that the bibliography on the subject was either extremely theoretical or treated cinema from the point of view of mere popularization. In search of an analytical approach to the film that would pass through an intermediate zone between these two extremes, these brief essays on films and directors emerged from the perspective of a reflective spectator, interested in linking plots, characters, spaces, with his knowledge of literature, psychology, philosophy and the various artistic languages he may have enjoyed throughout his life. Thanks to the kind invitation of the EAE, I have the opportunity today to publish a compilation of these scattered works, with love and respect for cinema, its spectator and the readers of this book.
