Cristiano Ronaldo vs Benzema
19.00, Four
Although they played as teammates at Real Madrid for several successful seasons, Cristiano Ronaldo and Karin Benzema are now playing for different teams. Cuatro is broadcasting the Saudi Pro League match live, which pits Al Ittihad against Al Nassr, the clubs that Benzema and Ronaldo play for respectively.
‘Before the devil knows you’re dead’
22.00, COSMO
Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead. USA, 2007 (120 minutes). Director: Sidney Lumet. Cast: Philip S. Hoffman, Ethan Hawke, Albert Finney, Marisa Tomei.
It had to be an 83-year-old author who filmed the best American film of 2007, a thriller A model film, as well as a Shakespearean tragedy that embraces characters dominated by anguish and the impossibility of escaping their destiny. Lumet films a flood of painful, suffocating images for a story that falls apart in a narrative framework full of intricate twists.
‘Gomaespuma, the reunion’
22.05, Movistar Plus+
Juan Luis Cano and Guillermo Fesser meet again 17 years later as a comedy duo in Gomaespuma, the reunion. It has been 17 years since Gomaespuma left his radio programme, a time in which Guillermo Fesser and Juan Luis Cano have continued with their projects, films, books and programmes, as well as with the Gomaespuma Foundation, an organisation that promotes culture and the promotion of children’s education among the most disadvantaged social groups around the world. Both take a look at the history of the duo with different guests such as the programme’s collaborator Cándida Villar, the singer Rozalén, the flamenco singer José Mercé, the actor Luis Zahera, the former national coach Vicente del Bosque, the football player Eva Navarro and the First Vice President of the Government, Nadia Calviño.
Science in the supermarket in ‘Órbita Laika’
22.30, La 2
The shelves of a supermarket are the protagonists of Órbita Laika, which investigates their possible scientific components. The programme will explain the fundamentals of neuromarketing, delve into the world of enzymes and their use in cleaning products such as detergents, and show why fruit ripens and give different tips on how to make the most of it before it goes bad.
‘The last subway’
23.35, TCM
The last metro. France, 1980 (130 minutes). Director: François Truffaut. Cast: Catherine Deneuve, Gérard Depardieu, Jean Poiret.
In occupied France, a group of actors tries to put on a play. But the director is absent: he hides in the basement of the theatre and coordinates from a distance the creation of a piece that will also be a form of combat. Thus, the maestro Truffaut creates a heartfelt and captivating homage to the world of theatre, while imbuing his images with a devastating romanticism that hides beneath a sober and restrained staging. An unforgettable masterpiece.
