thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Elangelexterminadorscreenshot.jpg

message: Is there any film criticsim that can be included or linked to discussing the premise of the film?
I mean, why DON'T they leave?
Of course films will sometimes have unexplained premises, as the idea is to show how the characters react to events, not why the events occur. Hitchcock's 'The Birds' or the Bill Murray movie 'Groundhog Day', for example. But I would like to know if Bunuel was doing that, or if he also meant something by the inabilty to leave, the stultifying effect of bourgeois convention or something of the sort.
A little more film crit. would improve the article.
And anyway, why don't they just leave? <g> 173.228.122.66 (talk) 21:28, 20 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Expanding the article 

message: >>> In 1960, General Francisco Franco had invited Luis Buñuel back to Spain after his long exile in Mexico since the Spanish Civil War (1936–39). Franco asked him to direct a movie of his choice
This is really ridiculous. Probably Franco did not even know who Buñuel was; and if he did, he anyway did not give a damn on Buñuel.
Moreover, saying that Franco asked Buñuel to direct a movie of his choice is knowing nothing about Franco, Buñuel and the Spanish cinema at that time, all together.
The origin of the decision of making Viridiana in Spain is well known, and is related to the business and personal relationships built between Gustavo Alatriste and Ricardo Muñoz Suay (Uninci ceo), while another Uninci film (Sonatas, directed by Juan Antonio Bardem) was partially shot in Mexico.
And, of course, it has nothing to do with Franco.
Please, delete this laughable sentence.--83.52.172.57 (talk) 19:20, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
