The article analyzes two contemporary movie remakes of the 60s cinemas in Argentina: Aniceto (Leonardo Favio, 2008) and La patota (Santiago Mitre, 2015). The objective is to explore the transformations and continuities between the source texts and the later subsidiary texts. It tries to recognize the immanent issues, the procedural and pragmatic aspects involved in these rewriting operations. The central hypothesis to be demonstrated proposes that both films generate, through different paths, a reconciliation with the past constructing a perspective through the present. In Aniceto, the conciliation gesture occurs in the form of a synthesis of the two tendencies that characterized Favio’s cinema: a first one associated with the aesthetics of modernity versus the second one, in which the approach to the popular universe and other practices belonging to the mass culture predominates. For its part, the work of Santiago Mitre assembles a film of an Argentinean classic movie maker (Daniel Tinayre) under the light of the current cinema. Besides, La patota ties the characteristics of a great commercial production with the structure and aesthetic of the «anomalous cinema». |
