"The Snow Society", the film by Spanish director Juan Antonio Bayona about the tragedy of a Uruguayan rugby team in in the Andes, won this Saturday (//) the Goya Award for best film of the year . The award is a boost for the feature film that is competing for two Oscars, for best international film and best makeup and hairstyling, and for the BAFTA for best non-English language film. It is the first time that a film by Bayona has won the Goya for best film, something that it had not achieved with 'A Monster Comes to See Me' () or with 'The Impossible' (), with which it had won. those with the best direction. While ', species of bees', Estibaliz Urresola's debut film, which arrived at the gala as the most nominated with nominations, leaves Valladolid, where the gala was held, with awards - best new director, original script and supporting actress for Ane Gabarain. And 'Robot Dreams', the animated story by Pablo Berger, won two awards, the one in its animation category, and the one for best adapted script, the only one that Bayona's film lost. That award prevented Bayona from achieving full nominations, something that no film in the history of the Goya has achieved so far.
Oscar nominated Based on the book of the same name by Pablo Vierci, 'The Snow Society' collects the testimonies of the survivors of the plane crash that crashed on October , in the Andes mountain range and that was transporting a rugby team from Montevideo to Chile. Of its occupants, died on impact and another Cell Phone Number List did not survive the harsh weather conditions, lack of food and injuries throughout the days they spent in the snow before being rescued. The film, co-produced by Netflix, recounts the difficulties and profound dilemmas that those young Uruguayans faced to survive, including anthropophagy, and included the involvement of the true protagonists in the project. Nominated for the Oscar for best international film, it marks Bayona's return to Spanish fifteen years after "El orfanato" (), his acclaimed debut film. In between, the Catalan filmed "The Impossible" (), with Naomi Watts and Tom Holland, "A Monster Comes to See Me" (), with Sigourney Weaver and Felicity Jones and "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" (), in addition to series such as "Penny Dreadful" () and "The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power" ().
In that sense, the writer Gonzalo Garcés, author of “El tango de Oscar Wilde”, was lapidary: “My impression is that he continues to be read, but for me Cortázar is a lifeless writer, unlike what happens to me with Borges, with Bioy Casares or with Roberto Arlt. And when I say lifeless, I mean that I can't see the tales of it as anything other than mechanical games. A man gradually transforms into an axolotl. Another man is stranded in a traffic jam on the Southern Highway and gradually becomes involved with other people who are also stranded,” the author explains to Infobae Leamos. “They are games where Cortazar seems to transfer a piece from one square to another, but my emotions are not moved by that. There doesn't seem to be anything vital at stake. It doesn't seem like anything human that has to do with sentimental or moral or philosophical decisions is at stake. That is my impression of Cortazar, a kind of Tetris where everything fits, but where there is no life,” he adds. THE MARK ON CONTEMPORARY WRITERS It is difficult to trace current names that can be associated with the Cortazarian tradition. Better said: it is difficult for an author today to update the Cortazarian tradition.
