Anécdotas
Curro Jiménez
In the Christmas 1977 the whole film crew of the series ‘Curro Jiménez’ who were shooting the show in Cazorla (Jaén) won the Lottery, except for a young Benito Rabal, who didn’t want to buy a ticket. When they suggested him to buy Lottery tickets for the Lotería del Niño, he declined and the whole crew won again.

At the end of December 1977 it snowed so hard in the village of Cazorla (Jaén) that the crew who was shooting the series ‘Curro Jiménez’ remained completely isolated.

The train travel sequence in episode 2 of ‘Fortunata y Jacinta’, with Maribel Martín and François-Eric Gendron, was filmed from Baeza to Linares; it was filmed from a car, although spectators see it from the window of the train in which the protagonists are travelling.

Spanish Classical Series
Many years before the current boom of the series and before huge international production companies like HBO put Andalucia in the shooting target, our community had already been a set for mythic TV shows, many of them already part of our popular culture and still in mind of the viewers. In most cases, these series were produced by Televisión Española, the only channel in Spain until the born of the autonomic and private channels at the end of the 80s. Historical, familiar, folkloric and even some serial that put Andalucia for the first time in the screens of millions of Spaniards.
Palabras de…
Silvia Tortosa · (Actress)
“For me maybe the most remarkable thing of the shooting of ‘Curro Jiménez’ is Sierra de Cazorla. I found myself shooting in a stunning mountainous landscape and, to me, unknown, that gave me the opportunity to disappear over the mountains on the days I didn’t shoot (…). This show created a very special boundary between Jaén and myself. I am still waiting for the opportunity to go back to Jaén and disappear over Cazorla”.
