naive nun

Finally saw a five-star Buñuel! This film fully proves that playing with symbols and metaphors does not need to be at the expense of storytelling, and that strong criticism does not necessarily mean deconstruction and nothingness. The language of the film is concise and precise, and the portrayal of the spiritual outlook of different classes is intricate. The church's lust and cleanliness will drive people to a dead end, and the problem of religious utopian socialism is seeing all beings as Buddhas. As a former nun, the heroine is the incarnation of the two creeds that link the past and the future, hoping to use love to power the gangsters and the sick and beg for kindness, but what really drives the latter is material coercion and inducement. This dislocation was not revealed in the presence of Leviathan. Once there was a crack in the order, the result would be the collapse of the proletarians who took advantage of the 'Last Supper' (here is also a satire of religion), or the bourgeoisie. The system of seduction and differentiation will make the proletarian dog bite the dog to clean up the situation, and the utopians who believe in bankruptcy will eventually be included in the realism, and finally, in the relaxed jazz and a joyful and peaceful three-player game, the bourgeoisie has won an overall victory. Great layout and design

In fact, religion has never been defeated in this film. Whether it is indecent assault or humiliation, Verityna is always quiet and orderly, calm and gentle, while the uncle who committed the crime hangs himself, and the beggar who enters the house is thrown into madness and chaos. If you believe that chastity and orderly mansions are the connotation of religion, it can be regarded as a satirical satire film equivalent to a bad Indian film; but if you value that state of mind, then Bunuel may be showing a stripping away. The process of exposing the essence on the outside. Of course, there are also anomalies in the movie - the male protagonist representing the emerging bourgeoisie, and the meaningful ending seems to imply that the real disintegration of religion may be economic and social changes...
