El ídolo

This film belongs to a time when few went to the movies to hang out and eat popcorn. It's the kind of movie that you have to read between the lines, that you must not wait to be told what you have to think and feel and you can rely on that your idiosyncrasy and cultural level will be respected by the director and screenwriter. It is, in short, a social, cultural, psychological critic of a generation to which Rodolfo Kuhn -the director- belonged and did much for the cultural advancement of the world. And if that generation did wrong a lot it was because they wanted to do much. It is one of the best films of the Argentine and world cinema. It is a moral obligation to see it for anyone who loves art.
