The Exterminating Angel (1962)
Movie
Released
After dinner, an affluent group inexplicably fail to leave a drawing room, and etiquette becomes increasingly difficult to maintain. Luis Buñuel needs no elaborate explanation to make their confidence look fragile. This older surrealist choice rewards viewers happy to examine the social rules of the trap without demanding a literal solution.
