Especialmente desde mediados de los años noventa – tanto en debates académicos en torno al postcinema/postmedia como en textos periodísticos – la interpretación de la cultura cinematográfica cinéfila tiende a ser enunciada dentro de un discurso marcadamente nostálgico que combina consideraciones historiográficas con una percepción autobiográfica. El presente ensayo parte de algunos de estos ejemplos para a continuación echar la vista atrás y centrarse en el desarrollo de un discurso cinéfilo sustentado principalmente en escritos provenientes de la crítica y teoría cinematográfica. Basándose en una caracterización del discurso cinefilo clásico (aprox. 1945-1968) y moderno (aprox. 1968-finales de los años setenta) este texto trata de probar que la revisión y reconstrucción del pasado implícitas en este discurso no son meramente consecuencia directa de esa ‘muerte del cine’ sino más bien parte esencial del mismo desde al menos mediados de los años cincuenta.
Especially since the 1990s, a wide range of texts –from academic debates on postcinema/postmedia to journalistic articles mourning the ‘Decay of Cinema’– about cinephilian film culture has developed a nostalgic tone in their consideration of a past, combining historiographical reflections and autobiographical insights. The present essay analyses the main characteristics of cinephilian discourses since the 1950s and proposes in the first place a periodization that distinguishes between a classic phase (approx. 1945-1968) and a modern one (approx. 1968-late 1970s). Based on this distinction, this paper seeks also to analyse the way the constant revision (and reconstruction) of the cinephilian past is not just another consequence of the often mentioned ‘Death of the Cinema’, but an essential attribute of the cinephilian discourse since at least the 1950s as well as a further example of a (temporal) shift inherent to this discourse.
