Un imprescindible recorrido por el seacute;ptimo arte; su grandeza y su magia; de la mano de uno de sus mejores conocedores e inteacute;rpretes. Aacute;ngel Fernaacute;ndez-Santos fue hasta su muerte; en 2004; la figura maacute;s prestigiosa y reconocida de la criacute;tica cinematograacute;fica espantilde;ola; no soacute;lo por su titularidad desde 1982 como criacute;tico del diario El Paiacute;s; sino porque para muchos aficionados al cine en nuestro paiacute;s eacute;l encarnaba plenamente la condicioacute;n de criacute;tico cinematograacute;fico y representaba una tradicioacute;n en viacute;as de extincioacute;n: aquella criacute;tica capaz de aunar el conocimiento y la pasioacute;n; la atraccioacute;n por el cine y la dimensioacute;n literaria de la escritura sobre cine; el compromiso y el placer del espectador atento y privilegiado. Esta obra recoge; gracias a la extraordinaria tarea del criacute;tico e historiador del cine Carlos Heredero; casi cuarenta antilde;os de criacute;ticas de peliacute;culas; reflexiones sobre el cine y perfiles de directores y actores.

This New York City story focuses on the far-sighted men who built and nurtured The General Society through its life of service to the City and on its beautiful landmark building listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
