Alfredo Mayo
(1911-1985)
Hello and Welcome to

Dear Visitors,

Because, Alfredo Mayo, Sir Alfred, has given dreams so many people (among them we are, of course) and has permitted to discover and love Spain with practically 200 roles in 50 years, we had to write theses pages. Our only wish is the celebration of the centenary of his birth and to get it, completing the website with all our affection and your help.
 
A modification will be added usually every two months:

Thanks,
the authors.

And now,  let's switch off the light, it's time to discover

For our summer selection of the films played by Alfredo Mayo, we present us "Obsesión" (1947) directed by Arturo Ruiz-Castillo, a adultery drama in Spanish Guinea. We'll follow with "Los desafíos" (1969), un film built with three short films made by pupils of the Spanish Official Scool of Cinema(EOC), the futures Spanish directores, Claudio Guerín Hill, José Luis Egea, Víctor Erice, all under the authority of the producer Elías Querejeta. In the 70s Alfredo Mayo 'll be an officer of police in "In the folds of the flesh" (1970), a film directed by the Italian filmmaker Sergio  Bergonzelli, a "giallo" with a erotic-freudian pinch, a work criticized in some film reviews but now which seems rather interesting; in the casting we can see too Fernando Sancho, Emilio  Gutiérrez Caba, and the Italian actresses Eleonora  Rossi Drago and  Anna Maria  Pierangeli. We 'll finish with a Spain-Germany coproduction, "The scarlet letter" (1972) by Wim Wenders, first adaptation in colour of the novel written in the middle of the XIX century by the famous US Nathaniel Hawthorne.

You can read also our pages History and Cinema in relation with Alfredo Mayo's filmographyt and the pages of the past months and years in our section "Former editorials" and in particular the 26th May 2010 editorial. We propose us, too, Alfredo Mayo's film posters, his filmography and some surprises more for our faithful and tenacious visitors...
