Unforgettable Carlos Saura
 |
| ¡Esa Luz! / This Light! |
In one of his late interviews, Carlos Saura asked that when he died, no one should remember him. It was only important for him to be remembered as long as he lived.
Ah, Señor Saura, this wish will remain unfulfilled.
Thanks a lot. Rest in peace.
Carlos Saura (4 January 1932 – 10 February 2023)
