Luis BuñuelFeatures
Past Imperfect: Luis Buñuel’s Early WorkSometimes, filmmaking genius is evident in every movie a cinematic master makes. In the case of this famed Spanish surrealist and his two early efforts, the future achievements are well hidden. [24 October 2007] Reviews
Death in the GardenBuñuel made so many masterpieces in his near 50-year career that those films of his that are merely very good tend to be overlooked. Death in the Garden is just such a film. [20 November 2009] 
Simon of the DesertThis has the confounding, irrational quality of a Zen riddle or Christian parable -- its comic and secular, to be sure, but revelatory nonetheless. [17 March 2009] 
The Exterminating AngelThe point in Buñuel is that there is no point -- only subversive play. [27 February 2009] 
The Milky WayIn this surrealist masterpiece, Luis Buñuel poses important questions about religious beliefs and organized religion. [18 September 2007] 
Un Chien Andalou (1929)Made in 1929, Un Chien Andalou is based on the exchange of 'dreams' between two young Spanish artists. [10 January 2005] |
