Abstract


The negotiations on the import of American movies into Spain during Franco´s dictatorship were left in constant limbo by theirs actors. On the one hand, Spanish authorities tried to control the foreign exchange generated by the imports, as well as to protect and encourage national motion pictures. On the other hand, the influential «Motion Picture Export Association of America Inc.» (MPEAA) sought to impose better conditions for its exports. This paper describes the talks during its first stage (1950-1955) coinciding with the intensification of the bilateral relations leading to the September 1953 Agreements. On so doing, it is sought to point out the main factors that motivated the incapacity of the actors to reach an agreement which would have brought stability and normalization into this economic and cultural transaction.
