PATRICIA HART

MYSTERY, TERROR, DIEGETIC SLIPPAGE AND USOs

(UNIDENTIFIED SOUND OBJECTS) IN

RODRIGO CORTÉS’S BURIED

Mystery and crime narratives in Spanish peninsular artistic expression have

expanded and evolved considerably in the past fifty years, and have become

much more international in subject matter and scope. Narratives of crime, terror,

or mystery are no longer restricted or contained within national boundaries or

traditional media. This presentation will discuss the way that the terror of the

unknown is posited as a mystery to be resolved by the viewers of Rodrigo

Cortés’s 2011 film, Buried. The use of Unidentified Sound Objects (USOs) to create

suspense and terror is crucial, and it is no surprise that Sound Designer, Urko

Garay was rewarded with a Goya prize for his work here. The film includes

significant stretches when the screen is completely black, and in most others,

though dim light from several sources flickers on and off, the specific visual

information is minimal. Most of the film’s mysteries are presented and resolved

through deft use of sound. Buried is a classic mystery/terror narrative in the mould

of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado,” and “The Premature Burial.”

The Spanish film reconfigures the 19th-century pattern by using an American

contractor, who is buried alive by terrorists in Iraq. This presentation will unravel

the mystery of this suspenseful crime drama that defies cinema’s generally-

accepted ideological hierarchies, and challenges the sacrosanct hegemony of the

visual.

PATRICIA HART is a Professor of Spanish and is the Director of Film and Video

Studies at Purdue University. She is the author of The Spanish Sleuth, one of the

first comprehensive studies of Spanish Peninsular detective fiction, and has

written widely on Hispanic narrative and film. She received her doctorate in 1987

from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
