If you loved Viridiana, try Nazarín
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Nazarín has roughly 3.5× fewer votes than Viridiana — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. 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 bittersweet, cerebral, foreign gem, outsider mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Viridiana, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Nazarín is
A priest without sanctimony. In a fever-dream Mexico, the holy man's acts of selfless charity are met with theft and scorn. Buñuel's savage piety finds its perfect fool.
