Queen Letizia has a current account: the Goya Prizes. On February 11, the traditional awards will take place in the Andalusia Auditorium in Seville, the old FIBES Conference and Exhibition Center. Recognitions that elevate the films of the moment of Spanish cinema to their maximum splendour. The 37th edition has nominations led by Ace beasts with 17 applications; model 77 with 16; alcarras Y five wolves 11 and The crooked lines of God with 6. This year the interpreters are Antonio de la Torre (The one in the last row) and Clara Lago (Limbo) who will be the perfect masters of ceremonies for the gala in 2023.
While it is one of the most anticipated events of the year for film buffs, as is the case with Queen Letizia, her notable absence from the awards has not gone unnoticed. Decades have passed since King Felipe attended his last gala, as Doña Letizia honors the actors, actresses and professionals committed to the seventh Art and that they meet every year at this national film festival.
It is less curious that the consort, always devoted to the field of culture and as a good cinephile, was not present on any occasion and year after year declined the invitation of the Academy of Cinematographic Arts and Sciences of Spain. Initially, Casa Real alluded to Their Majesties’ busy schedule to make up for their absence in the Goya Awards, but with the passage of time, a great unknown has emerged about the true reason. From Zarzuela they have justified that neither Felipe VI nor Letizia attended the awards, because on weekends the kings usually devote themselves to obligations, official or private, without media coverage. So for now, it looks like they won’t be thrilled with their presence at this important national-level cultural event that serves as a prelude to the Oscars, which are usually held a few weeks later.
It is common knowledge that the kings, Felipe and Letizia secretly went to a famous cinema in Madrid last October. Their Majesties enjoyed The crooked lines of God, supporting the audiovisual sector, as they have been doing for some time. They attended the 7pm session and both the monarch and queen opted for a very relaxed outfit. For her part, the Queen chose a beige trench coat with a built-in belt from her elaborate royal dressing room, a basic she uses for her more casual days. On the other hand, Felipe VI opted for his more sporty style, with a short barbour and light colored chino pants.
Everyone knows that once you step into a movie theater to enjoy a movie, you automatically go through the popcorn window to complete the experience. As indicated by the digital looks likebought Letizia a large bowl of popcorn to share, then waited for her corresponding line to enter the movie theater.
There are few occasions when the kings are seen making a plan like the rest of the mortals, but it is quite common for them to make this kind of plan or go to the theatre, showing their support for culture. It is during their traditional holidays in Palma de Mallorca, which take place at the beginning of August, when they can stroll through the Mallorcan streets once the official acts on their agenda have finished. Will they ever attend the Goya Awards with one exception? We still have to wait for that, because there are many who do not lose hope that this will ever happen.
