***** Defeated party to sue film director Giles Tremlett in Madrid Thursday March 18, 2004 The Guardian
The Oscar-winning film director Pedro Almodóvar was yesterday pitched into the centre of a row about Spain's dramatic general election, as the defeated People's party said it would sue him for slander.
His supposed crime was to give wings to one of the many rumours that raced around Spain on election night at the weekend - passed on by emails and mobile phone text messages - that the People's party of the prime minister, José María Aznar, had prepared a coup attempt.
A party spokesman, Ignacio Calabuig, said a legal action alleging "slander and calumny" would be filed with a Madrid court.
At a packed screening of his latest film, La Mala Educación (The Bad Education), Almodóvar told reporters that he had heard rumours that the People's party had planned a takeover last Saturday, two days after the terrorist attacks on Madrid and on the eve of the election it was to lose.
"If confirmed, it would be horrendous," El Mundo newspaper quoted the double Oscar winner as saying, putting his comments on its front page.
Yesterday, the outgoing interior minister, Angel Acebes, said Almodóvar's comments were "ludicrous" and did not "merit respect".
The leader of the victorious Socialists, the prime minister-elect, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, said that he too had heard the rumours, but gave them no credence. "There was absolutely no circumstance that could make the electoral process a matter of concern."
Almodóvar said yesterday he had never suggested that the allegations were true. "I just echoed a sea of rumours."
The director won Oscars for best foreign language movie in 2000 with All About My Mother, and best screenplay with Talk to Her in 2003.
