12 apr 2024 · Tomás Gutiérrez Alea's classic Cuban comedy, Death of a Bureaucrat (1966), revolves around a funny bit of cinematic dialectical synthesis.
Of course the highpoint of Tomás Gutiérrez Alea’s classic Cuban comedy, Death of a Bureaucrat (1966), revolves around a funny bit of cinematic dialectical synthesis. When a nephew’s (Salvador Wood) umpteenth attempt to have his uncle’s corpse reburied is thwarted, a fight breaks out between the funeral procession and cemetery management. What begins as a somewhat measured exchange of insults quickly turns into a brawl where funeral wreaths are lobbed as if they were pies in a Laurel & Hardy film.

5 jan 2023 · Tomás Gutiérrez Alea's canonical Cuban comedy Death of a Bureaucrat (Muerte de un burócrata, 1966) begins with a satirical swipe at bureaucracy.
Tomás Gutiérrez Alea's canonical Cuban comedy Death of a Bureaucrat (Muerte de un burócrata, 1966) begins with a satirical swipe at bureaucracy and a nod predominantly to classic Hollywood and Euro-American art cinema. To the strains of a typewriter interwoven with pompous classical music, a document overladen with official formulations—"por cuanto" (whereas); "resuelvo" (I resolve)—unfolds the film's credits in the form of numbered resolutions. The fifth and final resolution of the document dedicates the film to a long list of filmmaking greats including Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy, Harold Lloyd, and Buster Keaton (figure 1). Notably absent from this list are any Soviet or socialist world filmmakers. Indeed, later in the film socialist realism—or the didactic use of art that Cuban artists understood as such—itself becomes a target of attack. The ample scholarship on Death of a Bureaucrat has upheld the exclusion of a Soviet or socialist world framework.1
