Víctor Laplace ( born 30 May 1943 ) is an acclaimed Argentine film actor . Laplace was born in Tandil , Buenos Aires . The son of a watchmaking jeweler and a housewife . When he was 14 , he started working as a metallurgist in a factory , there he also recited Shakespeare poems . When he was 18 , he left the family for Buenos Aires and the theatre . He has appeared in over 80 films since 1970 , including Eva Perón : The True Story ( 1996 , in which he portrayed President Juan Perón ) and Un Amor en Moisés Ville in 2001 , as well as extensive local and international theatre credits .

In film and television , drama is a genre of narrative fiction ( or semi-fiction ) intended to be more serious than humorous in tone . Drama of this kind is usually qualified with additional terms that specify its particular subgenre , such as police crime drama , political drama , legal drama , historical period drama , domestic drama , teen drama or comedy-drama . These terms tend to indicate a particular setting or subject-matter , or else they qualify the otherwise serious tone of a drama with elements that encourage a broader range of moods . All forms of cinema or television that involve fictional stories are forms of drama in the broader sense if their storytelling is achieved by means of actors who represent ( mimesis ) characters . In this broader sense , drama is a mode distinct from novels , short stories , and narrative poetry or songs . In the modern era before the birth of cinema or television , drama within theatre was a type of play that was neither a comedy nor a tragedy . It is this narrower sense that the film and television industries , along with film studies , adopted . Radio drama has been used in both senses - originally transmitted in a live performance , it has also been used to describe the more high-brow and serious end of the dramatic output of radio .
El amor y el espanto ( Love and Dread ) is a 2001 Argentine drama film directed by Juan Carlos Desanzo and written by José Pablo Feinmann . It stars Miguel Ángel Solá , Blanca Oteyza and Victor Laplace .
Jorge Francisco Isidoro Luis Borges Acevedo KBE ( /ˈbɔːrhɛs/ ; Spanish : [ ˈboɾxes ] ( listen ) ; 24 August 1899 - 14 June 1986 ) was an Argentine short-story writer , essayist , poet and translator , and a key figure in Spanish-language and universal literature . His best-known books , Ficciones ( Fictions ) and El Aleph ( The Aleph ) , published in the 1940s , are compilations of short stories interconnected by common themes , including dreams , labyrinths , philosophy , libraries , mirrors , fictional writers , and mythology . Borges ' works have contributed to philosophical literature and the fantasy genre , and have been considered by some critics to mark the beginning of the magic realist movement in 20th century Latin American literature . His late poems converse with such cultural figures as Spinoza , Camões , and Virgil . Born in Buenos Aires , Borges later moved with his family to Switzerland in 1914 , where he studied at the Collège de Genève . The family travelled widely in Europe , including Spain . On his return to Argentina in 1921 , Borges began publishing his poems and essays in surrealist literary journals . He also worked as a librarian and public lecturer . In 1955 , he was appointed director of the National Public Library and professor of English Literature at the University of Buenos Aires . He became completely blind by the age of 55 . Scholars have suggested that his progressive blindness helped him to create innovative literary symbols through imagination . [ Note 1 ] By the 1960s , his work was translated and published widely in the United States and Europe .
Animalada ( English : Animal ) is a 2001 Argentine black comedy film directed and written by Sergio Bizzio .

Black comedy , also known as black humor , dark comedy , dark humor or gallows humor , is a comic style that makes light of subject matter that is generally considered taboo , particularly subjects that are normally considered serious or painful to discuss . Writers and comedians often use it as a tool for exploring vulgar issues , by provoking discomfort and serious thought as well as amusement in their audience . Thus , in fiction , for example , the term black comedy can also refer to a genre in which dark humor is a core component . Popular themes of the genre include death and violence , discrimination , disease , and human sexuality . Black comedy differs from both blue comedy - which focuses more on crude topics such as nudity , sex , and bodily fluids - and from straightforward obscenity . An archetypal example of black comedy in the form of self-mutilation appears in the English novel Tristram Shandy ; Tristram , five years old at the time , starts to urinate out of an open window for lack of a chamber pot . The sash falls and circumcises him ; his family reacts with both hysteria and philosophical acceptance . Whereas the term black comedy is a relatively broad term covering humor relating to many serious subjects , gallows humor tends to be used more specifically in relation to death , or situations that are reminiscent of dying . Black humor can occasionally be related to the grotesque genre . Literary critics have associated black comedy and black humor with authors as early as the ancient Greeks with Aristophanes .
Antigua , My Life ( Spanish : Antigua vida mía ) is a 2001 Argentine-Spanish drama film directed by Héctor Olivera and written by Ángeles González Sinde , from the novel by the Chilean writer Marcela Serrano . It stars Ana Belén and Cecilia Roth . Many scenes of the film were shot in Guatemala .

Buenos Aires ( /ˌbweɪnəs ˈɛəriːz/ or /-ˈaɪrɪs/ ; Spanish pronunciation : [ ˈbwenos ˈaiɾes ] ) is the capital and largest city of Argentina . The city is located on the western shore of the estuary of the Río de la Plata , on the South American continent 's southeastern coast . Buenos Aires can be translated as fair winds or good airs , but the former was the meaning intended by the founders in the 16th century , by the use of the original name Real de Nuestra Señora Santa María del Buen Ayre , named after the Madonna of Bonaria in Sardinia . The Greater Buenos Aires conurbation , which also includes several Buenos Aires Province districts , constitutes the fourth-most populous metropolitan area in the Americas , with a population of around 15.6 million . The city of Buenos Aires is neither part of Buenos Aires Province nor the Province 's capital ; rather , it is an autonomous district . In 1880 , after decades of political infighting , Buenos Aires was federalized and removed from Buenos Aires Province . The city limits were enlarged to include the towns of Belgrano and Flores ; both are now neighborhoods of the city . The 1994 constitutional amendment granted the city autonomy , hence its formal name of Autonomous City of Buenos Aires ( Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires ; CABA ) . Its citizens first elected a chief of government ( i.e . mayor ) in 1996 ; previously , the mayor was directly appointed by the President of the Republic . Buenos Aires ' quality of life was ranked 91st in the world in 2018 , being one of the best in Latin America . In 2012 , it was the most visited city in South America , and the second-most visited city of Latin America ( behind Mexico City ) .

Jean-Pierre Reguerraz ( 1939 - November 2 , 2007 ) was an Argentine stage and film actor noted for his deep bass voice . Born in Buenos Aires , Argentina , in 1939 of French parents , he studied acting in Europe before returning to Argentina in 1960 for various stage roles . He performed at the Teatro Payro in Marathon , Rayuela , and Ivanov . He appeared in 35 films , mostly in supporting roles , including the critically acclaimed El Armario in 2001 . In the 2006 Oscar-entry film Family Law , which was distributed in the United States , he played Uncle Eduardo , a shady attorney . Movie critic Ty Burr of The Boston Globe said Family Law gets a lift from Reguerraz ' portrayal . Other films include El Amor y la ciudad ( 2006 ) and Garage Olimpo ( 1999 ) , as Juan Carlos . His last film appearance was in Luisa , filmed in mid-2007 . Reguerraz died at age 68 on November 2 , 2007 , after what was described as a long illness .

Enrique Pinti ( born October 7 , 1939 in Buenos Aires ) is an Argentine actor and comedian . As a humorist , he performs stand-up shows with long monologues on Argentine politics and history , speaking at an extremely fast pace and resorting to a mix of common swearwords and elaborate insults to qualify notorious examples of immorality or corruption . The monologues are interrupted by interspersed musical segments . Though his stance is not impartial or unbiased , Pinti displays historical knowledge beyond the common traditional themes , so these shows are arguably an alternative source of learning about Argentina 's past and present troubles . A number of his productions , such as Salsa Criolla in the early 1990s and Candombe Nacional , more recently , were among the most successful in the Argentine theatre . Pinti has also starred in a number of Argentine films , in satirical as well as tragic roles . Some of the most notable have been in Carlos Galettini 's Juan que reía ( 1976 ) , Alejandro Doria 's Esperando la carroza ( 1985 ) , Eduardo Mignogna 's Flop ( 1990 ) , Alberto Lecchi 's Perdido por perdido ( 1993 ) , Carlos Saura 's Tango ( 1998 ) , and in María Victoria Menis ' Arregui , la noticia del día ( 2001 ) .

A comedy film is a genre of film in which the main emphasis is on humor . These films are designed to make the audience laugh through amusement and most often work by exaggerating characteristics for humorous effect . Films in this style traditionally have a happy ending ( black comedy being an exception ) . One of the oldest genres in film - and derived from the classical comedy in theatre - , some of the very first silent movies were comedies , as slapstick comedy often relies on visual depictions , without requiring sound . When sound films became more prevalent during the 1920s , comedy films took another swing , as laughter could result from burlesque situations but also dialogue . Comedy , compared with other film genres , puts much more focus on individual stars , with many former stand-up comics transitioning to the film industry due to their popularity . While many comic films are lighthearted stories with no intent other than to amuse , others contain political or social commentary ( such as The King of Comedy and Wag the Dog ) .

Villa Crespo was also sometimes referred to as Palermo Queens around 2007 . This trade name , caused a reaction from the Neighborhood Association and Historical Studies at the Ombudsman of the city of Buenos Aires . They issued Resolution 2549/07 , resulting in 14 realtors being sanctioned for publishing misleading advertising , in violation of the consumer competition law and fair trading law , and violation of the law of neighborhood boundaries and the tourist protection law . Palermo is considered a more expensive neighborhood and renaming Villa Crespo as part of Palermo would allow people to charge higher rents , etc . It grew around the Fábrica Nacional de Calzado ( National Shoe Factory , 1888 ) .

In April 2018 , Vogue called her one of the greatest directors in the world right now . Her 2001 debut feature film La Ciénaga ( The Swamp ) , about an indulgent bourgeois extended family spending the summertime in a decrepit vacation home in provincial Salta , Argentina , was internationally highly acclaimed upon release and introduced a new and vital voice to Argentine cinema . David Oubiña called it one of the highest achievements of the New Argentine Cinema , a wave of contemporary filmmaking that began in the mid-1990s in reaction to decades of political and economic crises in the country . The film , Oubiña wrote , is a rare expression of an extremely troubled moment in the nations recent history . It is a masterpiece of singular maturity .

In a modern sense , comedy ( from the Greek : κωμῳδία , kōmōidía ) is a genre of fiction that refers to any discourse or work generally intended to be humorous or amusing by inducing laughter , especially in theatre , television , film , stand-up comedy , books and novels or any other medium of entertainment . The origins of the term are found in Ancient Greece . In the Athenian democracy , the public opinion of voters was influenced by the political satire performed by the comic poets at the theaters . The theatrical genre of Greek comedy can be described as a dramatic performance which pits two groups or societies against each other in an amusing agon or conflict . Northrop Frye depicted these two opposing sides as a Society of Youth and a Society of the Old . A revised view characterizes the essential agon of comedy as a struggle between a relatively powerless youth and the societal conventions that pose obstacles to his hopes . In this struggle , the youth is understood to be constrained by his lack of social authority , and is left with little choice but to take recourse in ruses which engender very dramatic irony which provokes laughter . Satire and political satire use comedy to portray persons or social institutions as ridiculous or corrupt , thus alienating their audience from the object of their humor . Parody subverts popular genres and forms , critiquing those forms without necessarily condemning them . Other forms of comedy include screwball comedy , which derives its humor largely from bizarre , surprising ( and improbable ) situations or characters , and black comedy , which is characterized by a form of humor that includes darker aspects of human behavior or human nature . Similarly scatological humor , sexual humor , and race humor create comedy by violating social conventions or taboos in comic ways . A comedy of manners typically takes as its subject a particular part of society ( usually upper-class society ) and uses humor to parody or satirize the behavior and mannerisms of its members .
