| Sumario: | Since its origins at the end of the 19th century, cinema has represented urban space. This is shown by the first film recordings of the Lumière brothers projected in public and by other creators who record the city, considering it as a varied set of locations where perspective and action dialogue in the same frame. Montevideo is not alien to cinematographic interest, this is demonstrated by the first films in Uruguay dating from the early years of the 20th century with brief recordings of social life, whether important events or simple daily activities. This interest, which continues to this day, has as its axis the movement that is added to the image and incorporates the temporal dimension establishing durations, routes, provoking situations, where an action is introduced and with it a story that is built for our gaze. The perception of the landscape represented in a film is different from that represented in painting or photography, since movement and sound provoke such an immersion in the spectator that it can generate an awakening of the senses, stimulating the experience through the images in such a way that one may want to touch, hear, smell and be in that place. Cinema enables a perception of the landscape that transcends the gaze.
This article focuses on the knowledge of the character and complexity of one of the public spaces in Montevideo most represented in the feature films of the 21st century in Uruguayan cinema: the Rambla. This fragment of the city becomes a landscape through the gaze of cinema and is considered as a complex framework that interweaves culture and nature that is analyzed as a superposition of layers, not so much as an aggregation, but as a system of processes and relationships. |
