Con tres cortometrajes y siete largometrajes como directora, Manane Rodríguez es una voz consolidada en el mundo del cine. Desde "Juego de café" (1990), su primer corto, hasta "Migas de pan" (2016), recorremos en este libro toda su filmografía. Así, a través de su propia voz, conocemos no sólo su desarrollo como directora, sino también su compromiso personal con la libertad. Se suman, además, otras voces como las de Xabier Bermúdez, Mirito Torreiro, Miguel Marías, Mercedes Altuna y Luis Dufuur, que bajo la coordinación de Antonio Peláez Barceló nos muestran la importancia de una artista con voz propia, con una voz en libertad.

Rainer Werner Fassbinder vivió y rodó rápido. Para Jean-Luc Godard, uno de los cineastas que más admiraba el director de La ley del más fuerte, Fassbinder hizo él solo lo esencial del Nuevo Cine Aleman. Quiza sea exagerado, porque Wim Wenders o Werner Herzog tambien contribuyeron de forma importante a la creacion de una innovadora cinematografia alemana en los años setenta. Pero la rabia y la contundencia con la que Fassbinder construyo su filmografia no tiene parangon en el cine europeo. Hizo treinta y nueve peliculas entre 1969 y 1982, mas dos cortometrajes previos en 1966. Dirigio tambien dos series de television y una de ellas, Berlin Alexanderplatz, es hoy un referente de la ficcion catodica europea.

Prematuramente juzgado por ciertos sectores como un diletante gustoso de suscitar escándalos, el paso del tiempo ha resituado a Louis Malle como uno de los grandes cineastas de su época, responsable de una obra consistente y cuestionadora marcada por la solvencia narrativa y por su tendencia a desbordar los cliches y a desmarcarse de lo convencional. Amante del jazz, deudor de Albert Camus y de la literatura del absurdo, fue un cineasta versatil, capaz de abordar los generos tradicionales de forma innovadora ("Ascensor para el cadalso"), de explorar los limites del documental ("Calcuta"), de desnudar los mitos de la Historia ("Lacombe Lucien"), de afrontar sin extravios la aventura americana ("La pequeña", "Atlantic City") o de recurrir a lo autobiografico para ofrecer lo mejor de si mismo ("El soplo al corazon" o "Adios, muchachos"). Temas y obsesiones se repiten a lo largo de una filmografia de apariencia variable pero sustentada por la personalidad de un autentico autor, de un individualista acerrimo que entendia el cine como un constante desafio.

Tomando como referencia Apocalypse Now, obra de culto ganadora de la Palma de Oro de Cannes en 1979, Adolfo Monge ha realizado un exhaustivo análisis textual del filme con la intención de rastrear todas aquellas influencias mitológicas y literarias que Francis Ford Coppola tomó como referencias para crear esta auténtica joya cinematográfica, que constituye su obra más personal y ambiciosa. En ella no solo se vislumbran influencias literarias clásicas como La Odisea, La Divina Comedia, Fausto o El corazón de las tinieblas, novela de Joseph Conrad en la que se inspira, sino que el director norteamericano utiliza para su creación referencias antropológicas y mitocríticas claves para aportar a la película una estructura narrativa y un conglomerado temático muy complejo.

El presente libro constituye un estudio colectivo de las constantes formales, temáticas y narrativas de la obra de Josef von Sternberg, uno de los primeros directores que acometieron, desde el epicentro mismo de la industria hollywoodense, una praxis filmica disidente que se resistia a su domesticacion por el canon estetico-narrativo impuesto por esta. Los diversos ensayos que integran el volumen analizan la totalidad de largometrajes firmados por el cineasta de origen vienes que se conservan, desde sus primeros pasos en el cine silente hasta su perdida de poder e independencia creativa en el sistema de estudios, pasando por la maduracion de su escritura filmica La ley del hampa (1927), La ultima orden (1928) y el singular ciclo de seis filmes sufragados por Paramount Pictures que Von Sternberg realizo junto con Marlene Dietrich entre 1930 y 1935 Marruecos (1930), Fatalidad, El expreso de Shanghai (1932), La Venus rubia (1932), Capricho imperial (1934) y El diablo es una mujer (1935), culmen de una estilizada puesta en escena que tensaba los canones representativos del naturalismo escenico hegemonico en el cine clasico.
