Martin is joined by the very best Buñuel-enthusiasts he knows, Chris Funderburg and John Cribbs to discuss the film of surrealist master Luis Buñuel by focusing specifically on the theme related to religion in his films. They look primarily at Nazarin, Viridiana, Simon of the Desert, and The Milky Way. However, other films make their way into the conversation too, like Mexican Bus Ride, as our panel shines a light on the unfair obscurity of many of Buñuel’s Mexican films. They break down some of the misconceptions about Buñuel, and give their interpretations of his films.

  1. This is a great episode! I really started digging into Bunuel this year and there is a shocking lack of podcast content about his amazing films! I really appreciate that you all know your stuff and had a lot of interesting things to contribute. I’m so sick of podcasters phoning their research in by skimming a wikipedia article or two and it’s refreshing to hear something so well researched which is why this and Flixwise-non-canada are my current favorite movie podcasts. I’m now going to watch Mexican Bus Ride which is one that I’ve definitely overlooked!
