It might seem like nothing is sacred to Luis
Bunuel, whose satire leaves nothing untouched, but behind
his scathing assaults on politics and society, the bourgeoisie
and the church, the rich and the poor, is a love of his characters
in spite of--or perhaps because of--their barely concealed hypocrisies
and neuroses. Buñuel burst onto the cinematic scene with
the surrealistic classic Un Chien Andalou, symbolically slashing
the eyes of filmgoers with his outrageous, ambiguous, and shocking
imagery. In 50 years of filmmaking he never lost his passion to
affront sensibilities or to lovingly celebrate the absurd.
