阿曼达与小狐狸

　　西班牙。偏僻贫困、被世人遗忘的维亚尔·德里奥小镇，一天突然来了位政府官员，宣布马歇尔援助团不日即将到达本镇，要当地人以相应的规格接待好美国代表团。消息传开，全镇哗然。各种阶层、各行各业，各种派别的人纷纷做起黄金梦来，每个人都希望从美国佬那里得到自己想得到的东西。然而美国人始终没有光临小镇，人们的幻想和希望都成了泡影。很快，维亚尔·德里奥小镇又恢复到昔日贫困而被人遗忘的状态之中。
　　影片以辛辣的口吻讽刺了西班牙当时的社会现象和所渭“美援”的骗人之举。影片在嘎纳国际电影节（1953年）获得评委大奖。不仅使贝尔兰加一举成为国际知名导演，还为外国了解西班牙电影，促进西班牙电影业发展开辟了道路。

　　本集，丁丁又有了新的探险。为了解决人类饥饿问题，卡尔库鲁斯和扎拉梅阿教授研制出了一种可在沙漠生长的蓝橙子。结果被别有用心之人将两人抓走囚禁起来，丁丁和他的伙伴们救出教授了么？他们又会有怎么样的冒险经历呢？

　　Malvís (Alfredo Landa) is sick of working like crazy for nothing. He'd rather become a bandit, that's much better, he's gonna be the fearful Fendetestas! He'll spread panic in the woods of his region. But there's a little problem: there aren't much people living in his region, everyone knows everyone and everyone is so poor, so is gonna be difficult that someone takes Malvís/Fendetestas too seriously.
　　This is a magic history, so funny, and full of situations that will make you laugh. It's also full of characters that belong to the Spanish idiosyncrasy: the strict priest, the Guardia Civil, the old devout women, the village idiot... there's even a lost soul wandering around the woods.
　　The great Alfredo Landa heads a cast that gathered together the best two generations of Spanish scene: from Fernando Rey to Encarna Paso, from Manuel Alexandre to María Isbert... A cast like that would be just unthinkable nowadays. "El Bosque Animado" was the first movie of José Luis Cuerda's trilogy of rural comedies (after this one he made the surreal "Amanece Que No Es Poco", and "Así En El Cielo Como En La Tierra". Those are movies so personal that stress the Spanish culture. The young directors should take note of films like "El Bosque Animado", instead of trying to be the new "enfant terrible" and imitating US worst cinema.
