Hi everyone, this day I will talk about Ernesto
Garratt, a very important journalist and film critic in my country.
Ernesto Garratt Viñes was born in Santiago of Chile in
1972. When he was a child he gone to Iquique with his mom because she had money
problems and many discussions with her family. So, he had a very hard childhood
and adolescence. He never met his father, a peruvian men that runaway when he
knew about his future son. A lot of rumors say that Garratt’s dad was killed in
Peru by a mysterious gunslinger.
He came back to Santiago when he was 18 years old,
because his dream was meet to great filmmakers and movie stars. The young
Garratt was a sci-fi movies lover, and for these reasons he studied journalism
in University of Chile.
Garratt worked in magazines like Wikén and Qué pasa,
working still today for this last. Also he wrote for El Mercurio and La
Tercera, the biggest newspapers in Chile. He interviewed personalities like
Natalie Portman, Marin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, Duncan Jones, Harrison
Ford and Woody Allen, and many others. In 2012 he published his book ‘‘Tardes
de Cine’’, a recompilation of his most important interviews. For finish, this
man, who is jury in Cannes film Festival, was my teacher last year. He IS the
man.
See you next Friday!
