If you loved Endless Poetry, try El Topo
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Alejandro Jodorowsky, and they both carry the foreign gem, surreal, weird mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Endless Poetry, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What El Topo is
The Wild Bunch meets Night of the Hunter with a pinch of spaghetti-western surreality. A wandering, black-clad gunman drags his young son across a sun-blasted frontier to challenge mystic masters and test his own myth. A child’s innocence is the bullet that makes the bloodlands sing. Jodorowsky’s acid western.
