Nuestro Cine was a Marxist film magazine in Spain which was in circulation between 1961 and 1971. Its title was a reference to another film magazine, Nuestro Cinema, published between 1932 and 1936 in Spain.[1]

History and profile

[edit]

Nuestro Cine was established in 1961.[2] The magazine advocated the idea that the cinema was a way of uncovering reality, its social structures, and the basis of external appearances.[3] Its theoretical basis was Marxist literary theory and literary criticism, particularly the views developed by György Lukács which were interpreted by the Italian film critic Guido Aristarco.[3]

The major contributors of Nuestro Cine included José Luis Guarner, Ricardo Muñoz Suay and Vicente Molina Foix.[2] The magazine adopted a Marxist approach in dealing with the films and film-related topics.[1] However, between 1965 and 1967 it was among the supporters of the new Spanish cinema which was funded by the Franco government.[4] It folded in 1971.[2]
