      Roger Ebert on "Destroying Angels" (self-translation)

      The Chicago Sun-Times, May 11, 1997

      The guests of the dinner filed in. They walked up the steps into the wide porch... Then came another wave of people - the same guests, but this time from a higher stand. Audiences soon discovered the beauty of the joke: guests came one after the other and couldn't...

      ideological barrier

      Quite a simple movie. But the angle is good.

      It may be easy to walk from one room to another, but many can imagine how difficult it is when we exit one faith and enter the next. Although the middle of the film is a bit dull and weird, the end of the church is a clear explanation.

      More than one...

      A mirror image of The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie. Representing the Spanish ruling class, they celebrated their victory over the working class with a feast, only to discover that the feast would never end. These people are imprisoned in their own bourgeois cul-de-sac. Of course, Buñuel never shows his political symbols to much fanfare, and the film is just an unusually dry comedy that is best explained by its lack of explanation.

      1. [The prudent charm of the bourgeoisie] Prelude (no food to eat vs no food to leave), but less cinematic and less free. 2. Not only ridicules the middle class and Catholics, but also self-imprisonment and even cocooning is a magical barrier that is difficult for mortals to break through. 3. Surreal omens with two banquets and repeated introductions. 4. Chicken feet in handbags, nightmares of crawling with broken hands, breaking water pipes to grab water, bears and slaughtered lambs. 5. The recovery of the church and the shooting of the military and police ended. (8.5/10)

    The Exterminating Angel quotes

    • Edmundo Nobile: I'm confused. What's going on here? I don't know how we got to this point, but there's a limit to everything.

      Lucía de Nobile: What can I say? For now we have to offer them breakfast. I'm sure they'll go home after that.

      Edmundo Nobile: Of course. I trust in their discretion.

    • Carlos Conde; Doctor: Since last night, not one of us, try as we might, has been able to leave this room. What's going on here?
