Best years of our lives? Classification and categorization of the comedies during first socialist governments (1982-1986)

On October 28, socialists won 1982 General Elections in Spain with an absolute majority that would allow them to begin a 14 -year mandate. I propose a classification of the Box -Office -Hits comedies in these first socialist governments (1982-1996), beginning with those linked to the Francoist or late-Francoist films, and which I call Another Time Comedies. Secondly, what I call Period Movies with Comic Effects as a second group; and as a third one, what I call New Era Comedies, which are exponents of the Spanish cinema renovation. This last two groups have been widely studied. Once this tentative taxonomy has been established, I will outline the main characteristics of this tripartite corpus.
