JORGE LUIS BORGES IN DEPTH 2 - May 26, 1980 - COLOR - 64 minutes
This second program with J. L. Borges, in color, was recorded on April 23, 1980, coinciding with the awarding of the Cervantes Prize.
Borges is eighty years old, his mother has died, and it is the culminating moment of the “Borges boom”, when Borges is read all over the world.
The writer gives some advice: “I dreamed this morning that I was dying, and I felt a great sense of relief. I advise you to forget about me." But we do not forget him, convinced that he surely did not always tell the truth: «always telling the truth is pedantry».
