CHAPTER ELEVEN: Cultural Revolution

In the film, Carmen Maura plays a man who’s had a transsexual operation and, due to an unhappy love-affair with his/her father, has given up men to have a lesbian (I guess) relationship with a woman, who is played by a famous Madrid transvestite.

- Film-review in the Village Voice, Paul Berman (1987, p. 572)

Successful demonstrations are not necessarily those which mobilize the greatest number of people, but those which attract the greatest interest among journalists. Exaggerating only slightly, one might say that fifty clever folk who can make a successful ‘happening’ get five minutes on TV, can have as much political effect as half a million demonstrators.

- Pierre Bourdieu (1994)
