The virtual cinema club «Rendezvous with Cinema» begins its 2024 programming with the comedy Robbery at three, by José María Forqué.
This masterpiece of Spanish cinema, whose cast of actors shines from the first scene, parodies the noir film of robberies that was so successful in American and Italian cinema.
Its director, José María Forqué, once again demonstrates his mastery in directing actors and his deep knowledge of the tools of the genre to construct this film, which combines black humour with social criticism restricted to the parameters of the time.
Synopsis: Galindo, an unhappy dreamer, works as a teller at a bank branch. One day, he gathers a group of colleagues and proposes a robbery at the branch where they all work. Galindo convinces them of the viability of the theft, which they prepare meticulously.
Cervantes Institute's staff moderates the activity. The meetings, which take place in a live chat, involve specialists in the film industry (filmmakers, screenwriters, etc.). Enjoy movies in Spanish!
