A western classic, “Two Ride Together,” by John Ford, and an example of modern horror cinema, “It Follows,” will delight film fans today. La Sexta offers the return of Albert Espinosa's space El Camino Home, this time with Máximo Huerta as the protagonist. In addition, Ariel Rot explores the music of Granada, Málaga and Cádiz in “A Country to Listen to” on La 2. DMAX, in turn, premieres the documentary series “The Wonders of Egypt”.
'It follows'
10/13, DARK
USA, 2014 (100 minutes). Directed by: David Robert Mitchell. Actors: Maika Monroe, Jake Weary, Olivia Luccardi.
It takes up the pattern of scary films for teenagers from the seventies and eighties and takes it to narrative abstraction. What was then vulgarity becomes here a flood of threatening images that opt for stylistic minimalism, in a plot that is as disturbing as it is unhealthy.
“Two ride together”
20.10, Movistar Classics
Two drive together. United States, 1961 (109 minutes). Director: John Ford. Cast: James Stewart, Richard Widmark, Shirley Jones.
Framed between a masterpiece, Mission of the Bold, and an unforgettable hymn to the death of Western myths, The Man Who Killed Liberty Valance, the great John Ford knew how to deliver another memorable film. Two Ride Together, one of the works to which the filmmaker has given more dramatic depth, delivers a collection of beautiful sequences that follow the journey of an officer and a sheriff towards Indian territory. Among all his images, the very long single shot in which the two protagonists talk in the river is still of unimaginable richness: one of the most emotional and captivating moments in the master's cinema.
“The Road Home” returns

History Channel devotes Tuesday nights to exploring the land of the pharaohs with the documentary series “The Wonders of Ancient Egypt.” From the discovery of the tomb of Tuntankhamun by archaeologist Howard Carter, to the search for the tomb of Nefertiti, to the expeditions to the Temple of Philae to investigate one of the largest pharaonic sites in existence.
The Mediterranean and “A Country to Listen”
11 p.m., La 2
Ariel Rot continues his journey along the Mediterranean road, traveling along the coasts of Granada, Málaga and Cádiz in the new episode of “A Country to Listen to”. In Salobreña he will experience a meeting with the Granada cult group 091. Later, in Benalmádena, he will speak with the leader of Chambao, LaMari, and attend the meeting between representatives of two generations of the Southern Indie, Antonio Luque Sr. Chinarro and the group La Trinidad. And at the southernmost tip of the peninsula, around the province of Cádiz, there will be a display of the region's musical eclecticism, the author's song of Carmen Boza, the fusions of Tatiana Delalvz and Carmen Xía and the flamenco-jazz of Jorge Pardo, Carles Benavent and Tino DiGeraldo.
