José Sacristán was there. It gives a little the same thing when this phrase is pronounced. That the cinema acquires the character of the mass phenomenon Merced the comedy that signed Lazaga, Ozores or Dibildos and that time came to call (not without that Spanish bad milk) “Spanish”, because there, sacristan. First. That new times of democracy, atonement and criticism of the hand of Olea, Gonzalo Suárez or Camus are experienced in that called new cinema, because again that of Chinchón who does not fail. That the cinema rehearses a third way, neither very commercial nor too intellectual, with Garci, Dulve or Bodegas, as they sacrist each other again. That young people like Carlos Vermut, Javier Rebollo or Kiko Mai … has never been lacking. More than 30 years ago, he and producer Alfredo Matas among others were for that to do here, in Spain, what he liked there, Hollywood so much. That is, a film academy that gave not the Oscar, but almost. Let’s put the Goya. «Yes, I was one of the nine that we gathered and, honestly, and without going into details, the thing has fulfilled its goal,” says newcomer to Cesa de Cullera where the umpteenth and always brilliant representation of lady Red on gray background.

Well, the years passed, hundreds of Goya were surrendered (in 2012 he took it, finally, the sacristan himself for the dead and being happy) and is now when that academy he founded decides to remember in a very special way from him.
The Goya de Honor 2022 is from now on for the man who, in effect, was always there.
And he is.
And what’s left.

Sacristan account that in its ideology is to endure, but not to do it at any price, but with a head.
“My idea not that of dying on stage.
I do not intend to fall into the pathetic to resist at any price.
See simply how far I can go, but without forcing.
The first symptom that I have to stay at home, I stayed.
The pattern is always Greta Garbo, “he says Pausado at the same time he insists that the best and almost only prize he has received in his life has not been another than that of working.
“I am aware of being a privileged because I have never been lacking work.
Sometimes he did not come to pay the bills, but I have never stopped being there, “he does not so much proud, as well as simply conscious.
And grateful.

Sacristán is a member of Fernando Fernán Gómez.
He says he has learned but everything, yes most importantly.
Not in Balde, the next project has to do with a text extracted from the Yellow Memorias of the Master and that in mid-December it will occupy the Madrid room, in fact, Fernando Fernán Gómez.
He learned the ambition and true sense of triumph.
«Fernando was clear that no actor wants to be the one who says” Lord Conde, the soup is served “, but the one who says” to be or not be “, or say to Juliet how much he loves it or strangle to desdemona … that is
The ambition of an actor.
But the success really comes when the receipt of the light arrives at the end of the month and you can pay it, “he adds.

30 years ago that the academy began to give prizes.
And there he was.
On February 12 at the Gala de Valencia, he will be again.
With the Goya of Honor of him.

And there it continues.
