Winner Best Documentary New York Independent International Film & Video Festival – LA Edition 2009
"...Assembly is pro" -Dennis Harvey, Variety
Hollywood used the Spanish Civil War as a subject in more than 50 films.
The defeat of the Democratic Spain let an “open wound” in the heart of liberal actors, directors and screenwriters who used affection towards democratic Spain as a symbolic feature to define the romantic spirit of their characters.
"First feature directorial effort by Spain-based docu producer Oriol Porta is a solidly crafted mix of personal narrative, archival clips and latter-day interview commentary that's well-suited for international broadcasters...
"A War in Hollywood" also deploys considerable archival news footage to illustrate the times. Excerpts from Bessie's letters, diaries and books on the matter are read by Lluis Soler.
