Hi guys I would like to talk about this two films that I had just study in class which are: Guayaquil de mis amores and La divina cancion.
Guayaquil de mis amores was a movie directed by Francisco Diunmejo in 1930. This film was the first movie that used synchronized sounds, and also this film was the first movie sung. This movie was produced by Ecuador Sono Films, which had great figures from Ecuadorian music and famous Cuban dancers of the year. According to an Ecuadorian news, 70 thousands went to watch this film.
L divina cancion was a movie created by Alberto Santana in 1931. It is a classic love, which is the center of Guayaquilenan music. Martha Blacio is a young poor girl that is in love with Jorge Rando, a young guy who studies medicine, but at the same time, she is courted by a old doctor called Ferres. Martha gives her love to him because he was a rich doctor, and she needed the mobey to take care of her sick mother, but at the end her mother died. Jorge knows about it and finally Martha knew that he had noticed about his love with the doc. so she ends killing herself. This movie includes some sounds and music from Enrique Ibanez.
This two films are very old, but we can notice by the last one that the theme was very original, with Ecuadorian reality about love.

I think that Ecuadorian movies had been improving in this last years, since the 1990's to what is rigth now. But the country should support more Ecuadorian films and alsoteh Ecuadorians have to support was is ours.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, Ecuadorian Films had been better each production and we as Ecuadorians have to be proud, because we know our reality of the poor things that we have, but the directors and the filmmakers do magic with the small quantity of things and created something big. There had been a lot of movies as you already said as Guayaquil de mis amores.
ReplyDeleteEcuadorian movies are better now than years ago, but I am proud that Ecuadorian People tried to make movies even when they didn`t have enough money to do it
ReplyDeleteEven they aren't the best they had improved a lot and we have to understand and realized this, because if we don't help them they would never be recognized by other people.
