Review of The Young and the Damned (1950) by Zoran S — 27 Nov 2011
The most internationally renowned film of Bunuel's Mexican period. It's basically a relentlessly grim and nihilistic tale of crime and poverty among street children. It's still a powerful and disturbing film since Bunuel strips it of all sentimentality.
The meat/ mother dream sequence is one of Bunuel's best dream sequences.
