OT: la película

I think that OT is not only a movie for fans of the TV show "Operación Triunfo". It is a very good film for fans and for people without prejudices. As Alejandro says in the movie, this is the story of a summer in which Spain went crazy. This is also the first movie in Spain about a tour of a group of musicians: you can see them in the backstage, in the bus, sleeping in the planes... And it is also a document about the problems of the fame: there is a beautiful part, of course, but sometimes it is like a golden cage. The singers can't go to a bar to take a beer or see their friends. Everybody knows them. They are not free. Very good are the travellings from the backstage to the stage, following the singers, the stress, the adrenaline, thousands and thousands of people singing the songs, some of them in a kind of trance, children singing and crying... I think that the work of the young directors Balagueró and Plaza is very remarkable. Directors from the Horror genre, they make a very good and professional work. As I said before, a very good film to see without prejudices.
