Plácido is a 1961 Spanish black comedy film directed by Luis García Berlanga. It was nominated to the Academy Award as Best Foreign Language Film. It was also entered into the 1962 Cannes Film Festival.
Production
The film emerged from a campaign devised by the Franco regime, under the slogan "seat a poor person at your table", aimed at fostering a sense of Christian charity towards the underprivileged in society. However, as Berlanga manages to depict, it actually conceals a means of appeasing bourgeois consciences—a sentiment nowadays addressed by "Christmas solidarity telethons", programs which Berlanga confessed to abhorring.
As Berlanga tinkered with the script, Rafael Azcona (one of the co-writers of the film alongside José Luis Colina, José Luis Font, and Berlanga) joined the project. Azcona had to journey to Rome during the script's development to acquaint himself with the works of Zavattini, as he was collaborating with various Italian directors during that period.
Initially titled Seat a Poor Person at Your Table, the script underwent a last-minute change due to censorship issues, ultimately named after the main male character.
Filming took place on sets in Manresa, although Berlanga sought to capture natural interiors. However, no affluent individuals granted access, save for a Catalan director, a friend of Berlanga's, who permitted the use of his Barcelona home's dining room.
