“El Ángel Exterminador” (1957)can be interpreted several ways but in general it’s a critique of the fascist regimes & general complicity of elite & the bourgeois in fascistic systems and the false trappings of capitalist society they construct for themselves

We watched The Exterminating Angel last night, it’s very good. Old Spanish film about a bunch of aristocrats being tortured by their sins. A little was lost in translation because Spain in the early 60’s is not well known to me, but I was gripped the whole time. #movies #TheExterminatingAngel
