L'Age d'Or (1930)
Directed by Luis
Bunuel this film stars Gaston Modot, Lya Lys, Caridad de Laberdesque
and Max Ernst. A bunch of weird stuff happens and a couple try to
have sex.
Buried with in the
wandering surrealist dream that is this film is a condemnation
religious and class repression of sexual urges. Unfortunately at
times the thrust of the film gets lost in the seemingly bizarre and
unrelated elements that litter the film. Certainly this film is
something you need to have a specific taste for, the rest of us are
just left bemused.
3/5
