If you loved Simon of the Desert, try The Exterminating Angel
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Luis Buñuel, and they both carry the cerebral, foreign gem, surreal mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Drama / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Simon of the Desert, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Exterminating Angel is
A gaggle of guests discovers that hotel exits no longer recognize them as valid. Over the next few days their manners curdle into claws and they start acting like people who’ve forgotten they own silverware. A fascinating if faintly unpleasant experiment in what happens when humans stop pretending.
