Ascent To Heaven

Aka Mexican Bus Ride. Newly wed Esteban is shanghaied mid-honeymoon by his brothers to see their dying mother. Getting there is half the fun - with a screenplay based on a flurry of real-life events, Bunuel crams a bus with raucous peasants, pompous...

Perhaps the most accessible of all Bunuel's films, with Deneuve almost doll-like, tiptoeing her way through a series of masochistic sexual fantasies, as a housewife who becomes a high class prostitute. Strange, sometimes beautiful, sometimes funny, ...

Bunuel's subtle parable about a Catholic priest who attempts to live by Christian principles, but finds himself despised for his efforts and confounded at every turn, is one of his most tender and ambiguous films. Much to his exasperation, Bunuel al...

The Adventures of Robinson Crusoe (Bunuel, 1954)

Buñuel's characteristically individual but otherwise straightforward take on Defoe's allegory of colonialism, in which he reverses many of the points of the book. Crusoe is shipwrecked, along with his dog and cat, when he is on a trip to purchase sl...

Recommended by MovieMail The Exterminating Angel

Through a classic surrealist conceit, an elegant gathering of high society folk find that they are unable to leave the dinner party they are attending. Their impeccable bourgeois manners turn bestial as the servants disappear and the days pass. Wi...

The Great Madcap

Bunuel's first 'comeback' film after L'Age d'Or is a dark comedy that deals with a family's attempt to change the spending habit of the hedonistic father by telling him his fortune is gone. An accessible, optimistic film.

Buyer's Guide

An Introduction

Determined in his quest to provoke a reaction and revolution in thought and action through constant witty, provocative and acute criticism of, among other things, organised religion and the hypocrisy of bourgeois values, Luis Buñuel is also responsible for some of the most indelible cinematic images ever committed to celluloid - the eyeball-slicing at the commencement of Un Chien Andalou, his film created with Salvador Dali - being the most notorious. The quality of the run of his last 10 films, from Viridiana (1961) to That Obscure Object of Desire (1977) is unequalled.
