Gutiérrez Alea. It concerns the seduction of a teenage girl, Elena, by a 38-year-old
man, Sergio. Sergio is a bourgeois intellectual trying to make sense of the changes
in his life, and that of the country, following the self-exile of his family after the
failed Bay of Pigs invasion of 1961. With reference
to the theories of R. W. Connell,
Johan Galtung and Antonio Gramsci this article proposes an interpretation of Sergio
which is more nuanced and less negative in comparison with previous critical analyses
on the same subject.Memorias del subdesarrollo (1968) es la obra maestra del director cubano Tomás
Gutiérrez Alea. Trata de la seducción de una adolescente, Elena, por un hombre de 38
años, Sergio. Sergio es un intelectual burgués que trata de comprender los cambios
en su vida, y en la del país, a raíz del auto-exilio de su familia después de la invasión
fallida de Playa Girón en 1961. Con referencias teóricas a R. W. Connell, Johan
Galtung y Antonio Gramsci, este artículo propone una interpretación de Sergio más
matizada y menos negativa en comparación con análisis críticos anteriores
