From a creator's point of view, sometimes works are just to break through one form, and the feature of works in the 20th century is to break through all forms before the 19th century.

Luis Buñue's 1962 work, describing inexplicable happenings, is surreal, clearly Kafka-esque, and also has Dali's transformation. I've been thinking about such a story recently. It's not something that happens in reality, and it doesn't have a continuous plot. It's a surreal segment, and sometimes it's just an attempt at the author's writing skills and a unique sense of the world.

How about 21st ?

The Exterminating Angel quotes

  • 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.

  • Sergio Russell: I'm happy that I won't see the extermination.
