Abstract

FQ columnist Manuel Betancourt discusses the emphasis on history and memory in recent Latin American cinema. Taking Pablo Larraín’s No (2012), about the plebiscite that marked the end of the Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet’s regime, as an ur-text, he examines the more recent films Bardo, falsa crünica de unas cuantas verdades (Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths, dir. Alejandro González Iñárritu, 2022), Nuestra película (Our Movie, dir. Diana Bustamante, 2022), and Argentina, 1985 (Santiago Mitre, 2022). These films suggest that Latin American filmmakers are again claiming cinema as an active participant in fashioning how the region’s history is understood, both from within and abroad. Building on the metafictional conceit that to (re)write history is to (re)shape it, they highlight the “story” aspect of “history” by asking viewers to (re)examine how and what one chooses to see, to watch, to remember.
我们讲述的历史
FQ专栏作家Manuel Betancourt讨论了近期拉丁美洲电影对历史和记忆的重视。以巴勃罗Larraín (Pablo Larraín)的《No》(2012)为例,他考察了近期的电影《Bardo, falsa cr nica de unas cuantas verdades》(《少数真相的虚假编年史》,导演),该片讲述了标志着智利独裁者奥古斯托·皮诺切特(Augusto Pinochet)政权终结的公民投票。亚历杭德罗González Iñárritu, 2022), Nuestra película(我们的电影,导演。戴安娜·布斯塔曼特,2022年)和阿根廷,1985年(圣地亚哥·米特尔,2022年)。这些电影表明,拉丁美洲的电影人再次声称电影是塑造该地区历史的积极参与者,无论是对内还是对外。基于元虚构的自负,即(重新)书写历史就是(重新)塑造历史,他们通过要求观众(重新)审视自己选择观看、观看和记忆的方式和内容,突出了“历史”的“故事”方面。
