Biografía y filmografía

Alan Alda

Actor y director estadounidense, nacido en Nueva York, cuyo verdadero nombre es Alphonso Joseph D'Abruzzo. Hijo del actor Robert Alda, siendo muy joven se inició en el mundo del teatro, en el que destacó a través de diversas obras de grupos independientes y, después en Broadway (Purlie Victorius, The owl and the pussycat, etc.). Su trabajo en la serie de televisión M.A.S.H., serie que permaneció en antena once años, y en la que dirigió algunos capítulos, es el que le permite afianzar una trayectoria cinematográfica más continua, en donde no sólo trabajará como actor, sino que también asumirá funciones de productor, guionista y director. Por la serie cosechó numerosos premios como intérprete, de 1978 a 1982 ganó todos los años el premio que concede el público estadounidense al mejor actor televisivo. M.A.S.H. se convirtió en un fenómeno de masas. Su humor negro conectó con un público ávido de héroes con aspecto absolutamente normal. Existen libros, guías, juegos de trivial e incluso un árbol genealógico de la serie, y muchos actores famosos pasaron por ella en calidad de invitados. Sus peculiares intervenciones le han favorecido para participar, principalmente, en comedias como California suite, El próximo año a la misma hora o Misterioso asesinato en Manhattan, dirigidas por Herbert Ross, Robert Mulligan y Woody Allen, respectivamente. De las películas dirigidas por el propio Alda, cabe destacar Las cuatro estaciones (1981), donde narra las distintas crisis de tres parejas acomodadas, de mediana edad, que van de vacaciones siempre juntos en primavera, verano, otoño e invierno, y Dulce libertad (1986), una historia que se desenvuelve en el mundo del cine, pero que se acerca a cada uno de los personajes que deambulan entre una y otra situación, creando momentos que aparentemente se fijan en su propia ficción, pero que en el fondo trascienden más allá de la pantalla. Su trabajo en televisión, cine y teatro ha sido reconocido con varios premios Emmy, People’s Choice, Globos de Oro y del Sindicato de Directores, entre otros.
