El Gran Carnaval de Billy Wilder. Una advertencia sobre las historias de interés humano
Keywords:
Billy Wilder, periodismo, sensacionalismo, interés humano, opinión públicaAbstract
Para ambientar su obra más personal, Billy Wilder escogió una profesión que conocía a la perfección, pues antes de dedicarse al mundo del cine trabajó como reportero en varios diarios de Viena y Berlín. En El gran carnaval, el realizador ejemplifica en el comportamiento del duro Chuck Tatum los peligros de las prácticas sensacionalistas en la profesión periodística –en especial de las denominadas ‘historias de interés humano’– pero, sobre todo, denuncia la fascinación de la opinión pública por la desgracia ajena y el inhumano morbo convertido en una forma más de entretenimiento.
