Jacobo Morales, né le 12 novembre 1934 à Lajas, est un acteur et réalisateur portoricain.

Biographie

Né de parents d'origine séfarade, il amorce sa carrière à la radio et au théâtre alors qu'il n'a que 14 ans.

En 1954, il commence à travailler pour la télévision comme acteur, scénariste et réalisateur. Entre-temps, il dirige une troupe de comédiens qui, avec en collaboration avec le journaliste Eddie López, monte des comédies et des satires politiques. La troupe se produit uniquement sur scène, avec plus de 30 pièces à son répertoire, jusqu'aux années 1980 et 1990, où elle enregistre plusieurs de ses spectacles pour la télévision.

Dans les années 1970, Jacobo Morales a la possibilité de jouer dans des productions hollywoodiennes, notamment aux côtés de Woody Allen dans Bananas et de Barbra Streisand dans Up the Sandbox d'Irvin Kershner.

Dios los cría, son premier film en tant que réalisateur, sort en 1979. Événement important de l'histoire du cinéma portoricain, le film est un succès public et critique.

En 1989, Lo que le pasó a Santiago, son troisième film, est nommé pour l'Oscar du meilleur film en langue étrangère à la 62e cérémonie des Oscars en 1990.

En 1994, Linda Sara, mettant en vedette la chanteuse Chayanne et la Miss Univers 1993 Dayanara Torres, est un autre gros succès. Le film reçoit, entre autres, le prix du public au Festival international du film de Mar del Plata en Argentine.

Après le documentaire Enredando sombras sur les origines et l'histoire du cinéma latino-américain qu'il réalise en 1998, Morales signe en 2004 une suite de son premier film, Dios los cría II.

En 2007, Ángel, son dernier film long métrage, est un thiller sur fond de corruption des services de l'ordre.

Alberto later picks up Carlos, he tells Rafael he and Carlos are moving to Orlando for his job, leaving Rafael without words. After leaving the retirement home and realizing what little time he has before he moves, Carlos calls Rafael later that night to invite him and his elder friends to a road trip to Loíza for a surfing competition and for Rafael to show him the family land. Early the next morning, the elders manage to sneak out of the retirement home through the kitchen and head out to Loíza with Carlos driving his father's car.

Dios los cría – A rich industrialist has died, leaving two sons and his widow (a buxom young woman) as heirs. While his body lies on a public wake, one of his sons sneaks out of the funeral parlor, goes to the father's office, opens the office's safe and steals the cash inside it. On his way out, he's confronted by his brother, who points a gun at him. They exchange words about their individual relationship, as well as how they related to their father and how his widow would not deserve any part of the old man's estate. They start to argue and get into a physical confrontation. One of the brothers shoots the other, but the wounded one shoots back the other in return with a gun he pulls from his coat. At the end, all three family members lie in caskets at the funeral parlor. Negocio redondo – Don Marcos, the lead of a construction company (and a lecherous old man who constantly imagines women around him being naked) visits the local Roman Catholic archbishop. They are discussing the last details of a land plot's purchase. Don Marcos tries to outsmart the archbishop when they negotiate the contract's terms, but the archbishop proves to be a clever negotiator. Once they sign the contract and the deal is closed, Don Marcos returns to his office, but has second thoughts and asks his chauffeur to drive him back to the archbishop's office. He asks for a private audience to confess his sins, to which the archbishop agrees. Besides conceding on his lewd behavior, Don Marcos reveals the archbishop that the plot he has sold to the church is overvalued, since a major road will soon run through it. The archbishop threatens to sue him and his company, to which Don Marcos reminds him that this fact has been revealed to him under confession, and therefore, cannot be revealed under penalty of excommunion. The archbishop reluctantly absolves the manager of his sins, and Don Marcos returns to his office, expressionless.
