Fotogramas de Plata
annual Spanish film, theater, and television awards
Fotogramas de Plata are a series of Spanish annual film, theatre and television awards awarded by Fotogramas film magazine since 1951. The Film Awards
-foreign and national- are given by specialized critics and those awarded to the performers are chosen by the public.
On 5 February 1951, Fotogramas magazine awarded their first Placa de San Juan Bosco award to actor Jesús Tordesillas for his performance in 1950 film Pequeñeces. New categories were added over time to the award, they were renamed to Fotogramas de Plata and in 2012 they absorbed the TP de Oro awards.
This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Fotogramas de Plata” as annual Spanish film, theater, and television awards. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the arts & letters register because the source frames it as annual Spanish film, theater, and television awards. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
Attribution, date and provenance are strongest when supported by the original work, a catalogue record and documented transmission. The source revision retrieved here is dated Mar 29, 2024. The linked authority identifier is Q1439650. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1951, 1950 and 2012.
Titles can refer to several editions, objects or performances, making precise identification essential before interpretation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
