Popis: This article examines, firstly, the difficulties that La Celestina-based film script by Juan Guerrero Zamora went through during Franco's dictatorship. To this end, I study the censorship files stored at the General Archive Administration in Alcalá de Henares. Secondly, the controversy that was generated in Spanish newspapers when this project finally came to be produced for the television in the transition to democracy era. As I will mention, part of this uproar was because at that time the Spanish Television Network sought to create an anti-corruption image in viewers and, indirectly, to make Guerrero Zamora leave the company. Lastly, the free and personal treatment that this director gave in adapting this classic book.
