Abstract
espanolLa comedia muda del primer cine de Hollywood se basa en unos recursos expresivos y narrativos que demuestran la voluntad no explicita de experimentacion del genero, asi como la intencion de divertir al publico. Consciente o inconscientemente, los primeros realizadores y actores de aquellas peliculas asumieron las convenciones del teatro, de la pantomima y de cierta literatura para ofrecer unos trabajos muy libres en el fondo y en la forma, y que tendrian gran transcendencia en el futuro, como el mecanismo del gag o los trucos visuales. Este texto expone las principales caracteristicas y tratamiento de tales recursos (automatismo, quid pro quo, violencia y transgresiones, erotismo y travestismo) a traves de personajes clave de aquel periodo: Mack Sennett, Charles Chaplin, Buster Keaton o Roscoe Arbuckle, entre otros. EnglishSilent comedy in Hollywood’s early cinema is based on expressive and narrative resources that show the non-explicit desire for experimentation in the genre, as well the intention to amuse the audience. Consciously or unconsciously, the first directors and actors of those movies assumed the conventions of theatre, pantomime and some literature to offer works which were very free in both form and content, and which would be highly influential in the future. This article shows the principal characteristics and the treatment of these resources (automatism, quid pro quo, violence and transgressions, eroticism and transvestism) through key personalities of that period: Mack Sennett, Charles Chaplin, Buster Keaton and Roscoe Arbuckle among others.
