ALMA, the Spanish Screenwriters Union, has organized a colloquium in which Eduardo Ladrán de Guevara, one of the creators of Cuntame, was present, who took advantage of the occasion to reflect on the evolution of the legendary TVE series throughout of more than two decades. In his speech, The scriptwriter also surprises by attacking some of the actors in the cast with great harshness. whom he accuses of having little education.
His words come just a few days after the controversial statements of María Galiana, the actress who gave life to Herminia, in which He claimed that several interpreters had to read the script to the scriptwriters. The idea that the protagonists, especially the family, had of what Cuntame was has always prevailed, and it is what has made us last. Otherwise, we would have gone to hell in three or four years, or less, he said.
Actors with little education
I have read, not long ago, some statements by some actor talking bad about the new scriptwriters that has left me perplexed by the lack of respect, Ladrn de Guevara began by expressing. I have not spoken with the scriptwriters who have suffered this back-and-forth, but I imagine that they must have felt very affected because it is very unfair, he continues.
The creator of Cuntame insists that in this series there were actors with little education and that he suffered a lot because the interpreters became the great inquisitors. That is not good because it creates a lot of insecurity for the scriptwriter and turns the series into a circus, he adds in his complaint.
Point out Irene Visedo
I’m going to tell an anecdote and also, I’m going to say the name of the actress who I haven’t seen again and I don’t even sympathize with her. It was the first time I had seen something like that. It must be chapter three or four… We get to the table to read the script and the actress takes out of her bag a script that she had written., forward Thief of Guevara. The name of the interpreter? Irene Visedo, Ins Alcntara in fiction. I stayed atnito, man.
At that, you hit your fist and say, go for a walk. Ah, it seems to me that the producer did not act well. It was the first time that the actors got on the backs of everything. Apart from how humiliating it is, it creates a frankly bad atmosphere, says this scriptwriter. It almost reached a kind of parallel executive production in the hands of the actorshe concludes.
