Abstract

Paper letters become faithful confidants of the protagonists in the cinema, being in certain arguments valuable sources of information. The study analyzes some films that have used letter communication in their stories and reflects on the educational and emotional value they bring. An extensive selection is made through the Internet Movie Date Base (IMDb) database of films involving letters. An analysis of the set of signs transmitting messages emitted through audiovisual discourse is developed. And reference is made to the methodological procedure used for a film from the theories on the filmic narrative and the semiotics of the story. This proposal is aimed at the educational field as it is increasingly detected that writing through technological devices generates difficulties in the processes of text composition and many spelling errors, including abbreviating words or not putting accents. Neuroeducation studies indicate that the mental representation of the letter trace (sensory-motor) helps to remember information better by activating more brain areas, something that is not achieved by typing.
