Carlos Areces He went this Monday, March 1, to Martinez and Brothers, the program presented by Dani Martínez on Cuatro, along with Santi Millán and La Pija y la Quinqui. His visit coincides with the premiere on Movistar Plus + this Wednesday Muertos SLthe new comedy by the Caballero brothers (The one that is coming, Alpha Males), in which the actor plays a funeral agent.

“When I saw The others, where reference was made to post-mortem photography, I asked myself: ‘Will this be a genre in itself? This exists?“, he said. “I started investigating and it’s true. From the mid-19th century to the beginning of the 20th centurywhen photography was not very common in homes and was very expensive, “It was very normal for people to die without having a single portrait in life.”
“When they died, and there was also a lot of infant mortality, It was very likely that this was the last opportunity you had to take a portrait of your loved one.“he said to finish explaining the meaning of post-mortem photography.
