Abstract

Fernando Colomo’s cinematic works are well known. He is one of the principal filmmakers of the period of Spain’s transition to democracy. The first films of the director gave rise to the label of «New Madrid comedies» and his fruitful work has resulted in numerous films, scripts, productions and performances. This publication seeks, through the interview done with Fernando Colomo at the beginning of 2017, to contextualize and discuss his main achievements. Hence, this present paper aims to shed light on the significant contributions of this film director, whose works have received little attention in academia.
