c. Spain
y. 1960
description:
"In cold print, 1960's Delinquents sound like a Spanish-language precursor to a Mickey Rourke/Sean Penn flick of the 1980s. The delinquents of the title are three restless slum kids, given to petty thievery. When one of the boys expresses a desire to become a bullfighter, the others pool their energies to pull one big heist in order to finance their pal's dream. The would-be bullfighter makes a disastrously dismal debut in the ring, and the gang is rounded up by the cops. Delinquents was originally released in Spain as Los Golfos, but might have been more appropriately titled Los Goofos." (AMG)

The Delinquents
Weeping for a Bandit
d. Carlos Saura
c. Spain
y. 1964
description:
"El Tempranillo (Francisco Rabal) returns from the Napoleonic wars with a desire to continue fighting. He turns to banditry rather than live in poverty in his native Spain. Though his wife (Lea Massari) pleads for him to change his dangerous way of life, he refuses. When she is killed, the bandit sets out for revenge. He soon meets Pedro Sanchez (Phillipe Leroy), an escaped convict who was imprisoned for his political activities. The two continue on together until El Tempranillo is offered a pardon and an estate from the king. Basing the lead character on a legendary Spanish bandit, Carlos Saura co-wrote and directed this drama early in his career. Filmed on location in Spain's Sierra Morena." (AMG)

Garden of Delights
d. Carlos Saura
c. Spain
y. 1970
description:
"Jose Luis Lopez Vasquez stars as a millionaire industrialist who is involved in an auto accident. When he comes to, Vasquez has completely forgotten who he is and how much money he has. His greedy relatives would love to put Vasquez away and claim his fortune. But there's a fly in the ointment: the money is in a secret Swiss bank account, and the only one who knows (or who knew) the account number is the amnesiac Vasquez. Those familiar with the work of Spanish director Carlos Saura know for darn sure that he's not about to go the expected route with this surefire material: Garden of Delights, is just that, a bountiful garden of the surreal, the symbolic, the illusory, and at times the hilarious."

Sweet Hours
d. Carlos Saura
c. Spain
y. 1982
description:
"In this story (within a story) a man is remembering his years as a little boy living in Madrid during World War II, particularly important because his mother committed suicide in 1942. Scenes flip back and forth between the man in the present, and the man as a little boy, very much attached to his mother and intensely disliking his father. As these memories move into the complexities of life back then, the story stops and it is shown to be something entirely different than what it seemed." (AMG)

The Stilts
d. Carlos Saura
c. Spain
y. 1984
description:
"Carlos Saura's The Stilts (Los Zancos) features Fernando Gomez as a middle-aged professor/playwright. Falling head over heels in love with actress Laura DelSol, Gomez begins obsessing on the girl, despite her unwillingness to make a commitment. When another, younger man (Francisco Rabal) enters the scene, the drama darkens into melodrama. While the story material in The Stilts may seem old-hat at first glance, Spanish filmmaker Carlos Saura invests his characters with enough conviction and humanity to keep the viewers riveted to their chairs. Eschewing his previous "nonlinear" narratives (which ignored such trivialities as chronology and reality), Saura directs The Stilts in an austere, near-documentary fashion." (AMG)

Little Bird
d. Carlos Saura
c. Spain
y. 1997
description:
"A relatively simple coming-of-age drama with autobiographical overtones from Carlos Saura, one of Spain's leading directors, the story is told from the viewpoint of 10-year-old Manu as he is shuffled from relative to relative in the hometown of his parents, who are busy trying to decide whether or not to divorce. That each of Manu's relatives is eccentric only adds spice to the low-key tale." (AMG)
