La mujer de Cocteau en Almodóvar: The Human Voice

I11-R103article-55462022-02-17T06:06:50Z Cocteau’s wife in Almodóvar: The Human Voice La mujer de Cocteau en Almodóvar: The Human Voice Alcalde, Verónica adaptación cinematográfica Pedro Almodóvar Jean Cocteau film adaptation Pedro Almodóvar Jean Cocteau With unmistakable references to his personal cinematographic poetics, Pedro Almodóvar offers us the medium-length film The Human Voice (2020) as a rereading and appropriation of the homonymous play La Voix humaine, by Jean Cocteau. It is interesting to observe the presence of typically Almodovarian signs and inquire about the resignification that they give to the original work, especially to the leading female character. Without a doubt, Cocteau´s wife and Almodóvar´s are not the same despite the fact that the Spanish filmmaker recovers the French playwright´s monologue and the theme of the piece. A proof of this is the open ending, almost subversive and humorous, in which the woman not only survives but also decides to take the reins of her new life with emphasis. Con inconfundibles referencias a su personal poética cinematográfica, Pedro Almodóvar nos ofrece el mediometraje The Human Voice (2020) como relectura y apropiación de la obra teatral homónima de Jean Cocteau (La Voix humaine, 1927). Interesa observar la presencia de signos típicamente almodovarianos e indagar acerca de la resignificación que los mismos otorgan a la obra original, especialmente al personaje femenino protagonista. Sin ninguna duda, la mujer de Cocteau y la de Almodóvar no son las mismas a pesar de que el cineasta español recupera en gran medida el monólogo del dramaturgo francés y el tema de la pieza. Una prueba de ello es el final abierto, casi subversivo y de visos humorísticos, en el que la mujer no solo sobrevive sino que decide tomar con énfasis las riendas de su nueva vida.
