- Abstract:
- Spanish abstract: 'Ucho' (La oreja), película de Karel Kachyňa (1970) es una prefiguración de 'La vida de los Otros' sobre la Cheka checa, pero con una estética peculiar—una película entre el realismo documental y lo grotesco, algo así como un cruce entre '1984' y 'Quién teme a Virginia Woolf ', combinando la sátira política con la cinematografía experimental. Nos centramos aquí en algunos aspectos de su uso del punto de vista y la cámara. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ English abstract: 'Ucho' (The Ear), a film by Karel Kachyňa (1970) is a foreshadowing of 'The Lives of Others', on the Czech NKVD, but with a peculiar aesthetics—a film half-way between documentary realism and the grotesque, somewhat like a crossbreed between '1984' and 'Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf', combining satire and experimental cinematography. We focus here on some aspects of the use of point of view and camera work.
