El habilitado is a 1971 Argentine film. It was directed by Jorge Cedron, written by Miguel Briante and Cedron, and starred Héctor Alterio, Carlos Antón, and Billy Cedrón. Plot summary. The link between five employees of a Mar del Plata store who try to climb positions on their sad situation. Reception. Director Cedrón was quoted in "Clarín" as saying, "They are not going to find in my film those vast theories about reality that some French filmmakers construct, I want them to find reality ... not a generalized, abstract reality ... In my film there is more room for the  aesthetics of a Roberto Arlt, a Beckett let the signatures of some nouvelle addicts wander". A review in "Clarín" read: "Film language stripped of all mannerism, with stark images... each of the characters is precisely defined." Manrupe and Portela wrote in "Un diccionario de films argentinos" that it was a "[g]ood approach to an office story, its pettiness and competitiveness."
