EXTERMINATING ANGEL


4 out of 5. I was reminded to day of the work of Luis Buñuel, specifically his THE EXTERMINATING ANGEL. I loved this film about class degradation. Just a wonderful surreal film where dinner guests are trapped in one room and they can't keep up appearances. In some ways it feels like it could have been more appropriate 30 years earlier...or more caustic if handled by the likes of Waters or Lynch. Still, a great concept delivered in style.
