Animal exploitation


Documentary or not, I think pushing goat of the cliff or torturing poor donkey with bees was crazy, it shouldn't have been done.
Bunuel allegedly said that he would burn some of his early work, i hope he meant this one.

nevertheless, i enjoyed searching for bunuel's trademarks.
and now i know more - that in spain there is a region called Las Hurdes. it's great to know that today it is prosperous rural area.

I'm the same. It's horrible when directors think killing makes their films more interesting. His style could have developed just as easily without the torture.
