La película de mi vida

Throughout his life, Esteve Riambau has worked in almost every capacity related to film: he has been a film critic and historian, a chronicler of major festivals, a jury member at various competitions, a university professor, and also a screenwriter and director. This rich professional career has given him the opportunity to meet and interview great filmmakers, as well as international actors and actresses, who appear in these pages with all their humanity and frailties, always portrayed with irony, tenderness, and generous doses of humor. These delightful memoirs begin when Esteve Riambau was organizing art-house film clubs in the 1970s and culminate with his effective management of the Filmoteca de Catalunya (Catalan Film Archive). Between these two periods, the reader of this work will enjoy this dazzling tribute to great figures of the silver screen, from the founders of the Barcelona School to the glamour of Hollywood, including masters of the best European cinema, portrayed, in some cases, with a deep sense of friendship.
