The first few minutes of a film orient the viewer, offering cues for a richer, more nuanced reading.

The author explores El espíritu de la colmena (1973), La historia oficial (1985), Fresa y chocolate (1994), El crimen del padre Amaro (2002), Abre los ojos (1997), Te doy mis ojos (2003) and Carlos Saura’s flamenco trilogy—Bodas de sangre (1981), Carmen (1983) and El amor bruno (1986), among others.
