El presente trabajo es un acercamiento a la película The Master. Esta obra de Paul Thomas Anderson vio la luz en el año 2012 y tanto su estreno como su producción estuvieron unidas a un rumor: la película hablaba sobre un movimiento religioso, la Cienciología. Esta sospecha ha comprometido su recepción por parte de la crítica especializada y ha afectado a su mensaje final. Desde aquí planteamos acercarnos a la recepción crítica de la película y recoger las ideas que se han planteado en torno ella para, y a través de esas premisas, realizar un análisis fílmico.
Abstract:
The work herein presented is an approach to the film The Master. This Paul Thomas Anderson movie released for the first time in 2012, and both, its premiere as its production, were joined by a rumor: the plot of the film was about a religious movement, Scientology. This rumor has committed its critical reception and its final message. In this paper, we approach to this media reception to collect the ideas that have emerged around the movie. And, from these ideas, we will propose a new view about this Paul Thomas Anderson work.
