The model underlying the English film falters. The new Audiovisual Act requires broadcasters to invest only 5% of their income on English and European productions. To this must be added that in 2009 the subsidies were removed would give the government for the shootings at the beginning of 2010. Industry had never seen a situation so fragile.
The industry lives in the unrest, although the latest figures assistance to the rooms far exceed previous years' data. English films abound among the most views in the past three months: Agora, English movie, Planet Cell 51 211 or so joined in an exceptional year in terms of box office Broken Embraces, Brain Drain, Lies and fat or Rec 2 . Many of these films have been produced with the investment of private television channels, whose contribution is on average one third of the total budget of a English film.
And against such a concern of film, the joy of televisions. The sector has received the new standard as a great victory, a decisive step in its long battle. A gesture that reinforces the thesis that the cinema and television are different businesses. General Audiovisual Law also requires telecommunications carriers to offer audiovisual services, to invest 5% of their income on movies.
In conclusion, the English film still be benefited by television, and that it was not enough money allocated to grow not only in Europe but worldwide. Televisions in turn disagree with the new because they indicate that they should invest in what they want ... but do the following question: if not force them to invest in domestic production do you think that television would bet por el cine español?
