I submitted it today, it's gonna take a while though...
The biggest mistake, I think, one can make while watching Mexican Buñuel is watching it with a European or Late Buñuel lens. Yes, it's true Buñuel had a strong sense of what was wrong with society, and that criticism is clear while watching his last films. But, watching these films without a Mexican lens leaves you nothing but plot. You can try to find his slurs against religion or government, but it would be stupid.
My hero and inspiration. This man created a cinematic world that has been unequaled by anyone else before or since, and one that I wish would have continued for eternity.
more Bunuel in Mexico! - El Gran Calavera 1949 / La Hija del engano 1951 / El Rio y la muerte 1954
Hitchcock said, "Bunuel is true movie director" even, Hitch borrowed Bunuel touch, in bell tower scene of Vertigo.
Johathan Rosenbaum said.. "Few years ago, some my latin american friends and coworkers are mentioned that Mexico in bunuel is glorious time one of three Bunuel era."
How many surrealists does it take to screw in a lightbulb? Purple, because cake has no bones.
