Be Mad broadcasts The Life of Brian, an essential film that makes up for the hours lost in dark cinemas, and La 2 offers 800 Bullets, a great dramatic comedy by Álex de la Iglesia. Also on La 2, Film Days reviews this week’s releases on Billboard. Antena 3, in turn, continues with La Voz, which reaches the Final Assault phase. There is a new date in DMAX The future from the air.
“The Life of Brian”
5:15 p.m., Be crazy
Life of Brian. USA, 1977 (100 minutes). Director: Terry Jones. Cast: Graham Champan, John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Michael Palin
Hundreds of hours lost at the movies are made up for by the existence of “Life of Brian.” The members of Monty Python reach their peak, combining intelligence and hooliganism, irony and irreverence in a brutal religious and political satire (the meetings of the Judean rebel organizations or the anti-Roman graffiti sequence are still memorable with more than 30 years of life). ). It turns out that Brian was born in Bethlehem and the Magi go to the wrong portal. This is why Brian is hailed by some as a messiah; Of course, he will also be an official candidate for crucifixion. An absolute masterpiece, as subversive as it is insane.
Spanish premieres at “Film Days”
8:30 p.m., La 2
In this episode, the Filmtage room has the filmmaker Salvador Calvo as its sponsor. The program will, as usual, review the premieres on the Billboard, with particular attention to three Spanish films. The focus is on the Spanish premieres El Sueño de la Sultana, an animated film by Isabel Herguera, La Ermita, a horror film by Carlota Pereda and Ruta Salvada, a thriller by Marc Recha.
Another appointment with “The Future from the Air”
10 p.m., DMAX
The documentary series “The Future from the Air” brings together top experts to examine how science and technology can tackle the environmental crisis and save the planet before 2050. This part presents the most innovative possible solutions in the field of transportation and human habitat to propose a revolution in the way of life and travel.
“800 bullets”
22.05. The 2
Spain, 2002 (120 minutes). Director: Alex de la Iglesia. Artists: Sancho Gracia, Ángel de Andrés, Carmen Maura, Ramón Barea.
A hilarious western in which Álex de la Iglesia once again demonstrates his cinematic inventiveness and the power of his cinematographic eye. “800 Bullets”, reinforced by a tremendous work by Sancho Gracia, combines comedy and action in a film that showcases a spirit as bold as it is shameless and pays tribute to the ancient specialists of the world of cinema.
The Final Assault arrives on “The Voice.”
