Editor’s Note: Berlanga!! (2021) encapsulated: This documentary truly shines as a historical piece that also adds a personal dimension. Under the deft guidance of Rafael Maluenda, the film maintains a steady pace and a distinct sense of place. The performances—especially by Alexander Payne, María Jesús Manrique de Aragón, and Fernando García-Berlanga—imbue the narrative with emotional stakes. At 1 hour and 47 minutes, it unfolds at a thoughtful tempo and seldom lingers beyond its welcome. While it boasts a few imperfections, its strong points more than compensate for them. If its premise intrigues you, it deserves a spot on your watchlist.
