Given this, Fantino decided to pick up the gauntlet: “I can’t understand that you take Neura, my team and me to install the idea that what we say is because we are told to say it. You put us in a very uncomfortable place, a shitty place, quite ugly.” And he continued: “You got into the mud of Argentine politics and you want to come out clean. In Argentina, those of us who make politics by giving our opinions are all in the mud, I will accept whatever comes; attacks, operations, assaults, defamations, it is part of the game,” he said.
“Don’t say more than what they tell us to say because it breaks my balls a lot. No one tells me to say anything, not Milei, no one. The day I have to say things I don’t like I will do it, I have already said it. The thing about this crazy guy is that I like what he’s doing much more than what he’s not doing. “He has the balls of a bull to defund you who have lived the entire life of the State,” continuous.

Alejandro Fantino responded to Ricardo Darín
In this context, the host referred to the spot in support of national cinema to which Ricardo Darín gave voice and which was presented at the 38th Mar del Plata International Film Festival: “What you say is in your personal capacity, They don’t tell you, but I could say that what you did at Incaa was what your sister (Alejandra Darín, president of the Argentine Association of Actors and Actresses) told you to do,” he remarked.
“He speaks about what he feels and the others, if they do not have the same opinion, are told to speak. It’s not like that, we just don’t agree. What does bother me is the stupid justification of thinking that the most important thing Argentina is known for is cinema. You added audio to a spot where a guy like [Guillermo] Francella appears out of the blue, you appear 17 times and there are all the Kirchnerist actors there have been… If I’m Darín I say: ‘no, stop, they just put this on Francella, we can’t do this.’ “I don’t record it,” she attacked.
And he stressed: “You don’t see this government well and that’s fine, but it has to be said, Dad. You say it in your personal capacity and the rest of us are hitmen. It sucks for me, but I founded a medium just for that, so that my balls don’t break and there isn’t a single noise. You choose the location of the film and I say that in a country made up of a shell there are other needs. Everyone is putting their balls on the table, so if everyone makes an effort, are there no priorities? There is no money, and what there is, you have to spend it on what really matters and what is needed.”
“There is no money to blow up a Fiat 600 or to sell fake stamps. There is no money for the press, for the big media, the medium ones and the small ones, unfortunately,” he concluded.
