The Controversy of the Goya Awards 2025: Vilarasau vs. Yust

A night of glamor and debate

The Goya 2025 Awards gala was an event full of emotions, with moments of glory and surprises that captivated the audience. However, the festive atmosphere was altered by a controversy that has generated debate among cinema lovers.

Emma Vilarasau: An unexpectedly ignored favorite

Emma Vilarasau, who competed for his outstanding performance in ‘Casa en Flames’, was left without the award of best leading actress, a decision that has left many perplexes. The prize was awarded to Carolina Yuste, recognized for her role in ‘The infiltrated’, a decision that has been the subject of multiple reactions.

Jordi Basté’s reaction

One of the most forceful comments came from Jordi Basté, a journalist of great influence in Catalonia. In his social networks, he expressed his disappointment with the election, saying that ’47 cannot win alone’ and question if the Academy had properly evaluated Vilarasau’s interpretation.

The debate on valuation criteria

The decision to reward Yuste has reopened the discussion of how performances are evaluated in the world of Spanish cinema. While some argue that Yuste deserved recognition, others believe that Vilarasau should play a leading role in the gala.

The silence of Vilarasau

Despite the controversy, Emma Vilarasau has chosen to stay out of controversy, without publicly commenting on the jury’s decision. Her career, marked by memorable interpretations, speaks for herself and shows that her worth goes beyond the awards.

A gala that leaves imprint

Lastly, both Vilarasau and Yuste have left a significant imprint on the Spanish film scene. Both actresses have shown that true success is not only measured by prizes, but on the impact of their performances on the heart of the public.
