The story is based on Latin America, Argentina and Uruguay, which had just been independent for only a hundred years in the 1960s. When the military regime ruled Argentina, the society was turbulent.
First of all, the four people wanted at the time. Starting from the left, the first is the original form of Fontana, called Mario Malito; the second is the original form of Nene, called Héctor Jacinto Dorda (the fourth in the picture above), the son of a judge. Three are the prototype of the driver Cuervo, called Jacinto Merella; the last is the prototype of Angel, called Marcelo Brignone (the second picture above is a picture made by a Chinese, so the order will be out of order). According to Wikipedia, the period of their escape is from 9 From 28th to November 6th, 1965.
Overview: The case started in San Fernando (Argentina) leaving three dead and one robbery. The criminals took all the money paid by the municipality for their employees. A week later, they began to give up their accomplices and the group came to Uruguay, where they stayed for a month. "They are very peaceful here. There are political parties, prostitutes, and go to the casino. The only explanation is that there is police corruption and they are protected." However, after a policeman was murdered, this tranquility finally ended.
The son of bank clerk Francisco Otero was killed in the attack in San Fernando,
Everything started
Newspaper La Razón de Buenos Aires
The insider told the police chief that he got in touch with him. A group of gunmen came down from Argentina and forced him to protect the money he got (approximately $80,000. I only learned later that a good hiding place was found at that time. It’s a fortune. He said that he didn’t want to engage in criminal protection. If the police let her live with peace of mind, the secret of his identity is willing to accept them, and you said you want to save them. He also said that he doesn’t have any houses. Or the apartment can find them.
The good times didn't last long. On Saturday, November 6, 1965, the last attack on the hiding place of the Montevideo fugitive was carried out. Three days ago, the fugitives stole a car and replaced the car they had stolen, which caused a shooting by the Uruguayan police. Then they and the police fought the Liberaij battle at Liberaij Apartomento 9 in Montevideo.
The police sent 350 officers to fight the three robbers for nearly 16 hours
When there was silence for about 10 or 20 minutes, you could see the robbers shattered legs on the other side of the door. The colonel then said ¡ Ceasefire!
This is the door riddled with gunfire. Three doors of No. 9 and one door of No. 11 were removed and put on display at the local police museum. . .
"The person with extraordinary courage was the first to come in. When he asked me to go in and do this, the picture was terrible." The policeman recalled (it was roughly that way).
Before his death, the gunman had burned about 150,000 pesos of these bill products in his own round, because they knew they would never find the money again and could not find it because only two revolvers appeared in the boycott of heavy weapons. Pain, pain, and doubts permeated the air at the scene. (It's a bit messy to read all the Spanish reporters)
(The following screen may cause discomfort)
When they were found later,
Brignone (Nene) had 19 shots and Dorda (Angel) had 16 shots. . .
The prototype described in the novel is that the prototypes of Nene and Angel were both killed in the confrontation. When they were found, they were holding hands, but they were separated when the police took pictures. . . Both were half naked and only wore underwear. . .
As for whether the two are together or not, the novel based on the movie has always been a mystery. According to the reporter's report at the time, the hands were tightly held together. In fact, the two had been separated by the police before they were allowed to enter the scene. In 2014, the family of the novel prototype also sued the author. Improperly attacking the image of the archetype homosexual addict can not help but make people bemoan whether it is the author's fabrication or the family members do not understand the archetype's private life. The ending of this story has always been an endless fantasy. No one knows the truth.
Cuervo’s prototype did not die immediately, but was spit, kicked, and insulted by the police. After being sent to the hospital, he died a few hours later. The picture shows a policeman attacking the dying Mereles with his shiny shoes and was taken out by the reporter. This picture of the Liberaij building where the incident occurred was published by the Argentine newspaper "La Razóde Buenos Aires" and no one can spread it in Uruguay.
The three were buried together anonymously in a cemetery in northern Montevideo on November 10. Only Nene's body was later brought back to Argentina by his family.
The Fontana prototype was shot and killed by police after it was found in nearby Flores when returning to Buenos Aires in February 1966.
In the last incident, three culprits and 350 guards fought for 7,203,966 Argentine pesos in an apartment called Edificio Liberaij for 16 hours. It was the famous "Liberaij Incident" in the 1960s in Uruguay (P1, P2, 350 police, and P3 apartment). Kitchen P4, today’s apartment has been transformed into an old Montevideo attraction)
The boundary between fiction and reality is a moving and winding road that is difficult to walk through.
Ricardo Pigelli’s "Burnt Money" is considered to be one of the 100 most successful novels in Spain in the past 25 years. This novel has also won the Spanish Planetary Award. The Argentine writer Piglia in his book The epilogue explained that he conducted a detailed investigation of the narrative in Burnt Money. On the eve of the incident 50 years after the incident, Claudia Dorda (the daughter of a robber in the incident) accused the writer Piglia in the book that his father was a man. The homosexual and addict complainant has been denying this matter. After the judge dismissed it, the author Piglia and the publisher insisted that it had a true story in the promotion book. Although this book promotion insisted on the truthfulness of the facts, everything belongs to The field of artistic creation. (The author said that the reporter saw the two holding hands but they were separated by the police before they were allowed to enter the scene. The author’s fabrication determined the direction of the novel, and how much does the robber’s daughter know about her father’s private life?) Plata Quemada (Flame) Is there a real history of burning coins? No one knows
Later, the Argentine journalist Leonardo Haberkorn (Leonardo Haberkorn)’s non-fiction book "Liberaij" interviewed 40 witnesses and their families over the past ten years to restore the three Argentine robberies that were submerged by the police in 1965. Bandit story
With the passage of time, time has the dual ability to amplify and eliminate facts. This event is a vague outline for everyone. This reporter will be responsible for providing a complete outline for this half-century story shrouded in urban legends and novels.
Haberkorn searched for more real information from a large number of newspapers and libraries, and completed the interview in detail. Many of the protagonists and witnesses of this incident disappeared. Others would rather not talk about it, especially the relatives of the four robbers. Some people only hope to take money from reporters to interview for more than ten years. Only 40 people are willing to disclose the relatives of only two of the parties. In the movie, the daughter and brother of Angel prototype (Jorge Dorda) San Fernando (the lawyer Nando in the movie) was murdered by the agent. Daughter Mónica Otero
More interviews are in the book "Liberaij" and there are few ways to buy this book online
2015 History 50 years later, this history will also be repeated in the drama "Liberaij Apartamento 9" at the Uruguay Theater
In the end, the film where the two are hugged is imitated by Giotto’s mourning for Christ.
In 2001, "Flaming Coins" also won the Spanish Goya Award winning video http://www.bilibili.com/video/av35177669
Maybe this movie is very torturous and it is easy to not get out of the movie plot. At the end, I still offer a section of the movie's highlights. Looking at the actors and the joyous atmosphere, I hope to take everyone out of the sad ending of the movie?
