get out of the magic barrier
Can't get out of the predicament, the curse? Even more magic.
Last shot: Under the sound of gunfire, the obedient lambs escape into the church.
The house is the shelter, and it is the grave of the living dead.
The role of time here disappears. Life just repeats day after day.

A mirror image of The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie. Representing the Spanish ruling class, they celebrated their victory over the working class with a feast, only to discover that the feast would never end. These people are imprisoned in their own bourgeois cul-de-sac. Of course, Buñuel never shows his political symbols to much fanfare, and the film is just an unusually dry comedy that is best explained by its lack of explanation.

1. [The prudent charm of the bourgeoisie] Prelude (no food to eat vs no food to leave), but less cinematic and less free. 2. Not only ridicules the middle class and Catholics, but also self-imprisonment and even cocooning is a magical barrier that is difficult for mortals to break through. 3. Surreal omens with two banquets and repeated introductions. 4. Chicken feet in handbags, nightmares of crawling with broken hands, breaking water pipes to grab water, bears and slaughtered lambs. 5. The recovery of the church and the shooting of the military and police ended. (8.5/10)

Raúl: You led us into this trap. You made us the butt of this cruel joke.
Edmundo Nobile: I have, my friend? By inviting you to dinner? By opening my doors to you?
Raúl: Exactly. You called us one by one to come for dinner after the opera. Such a cordial invitation. "I'd be honored if you would..." et cetera. We could have been sound asleep at home or in some brothel, instead of here.
