Buñuel Poster Gallery

Above: Titled The Criminal Life of Archibaldo de la Cruz in America, “it’s a very good film and a subtly anti-Catholic one: Cruz turns himself into the police for wanting to kill different people. But after he tells what happened — all the people died independently of his actions — the detective tells him he can’t be arrested because he’s done nothing wrong. Of course, Catholic teaching stresses that the desire to commit a sin is the same as committing it. Cruz desired — and plotted — murder. But Cruz walks away a free man, unpunished — after giving a secular confession!” — Nelhydrea Paupér

I love these vintage posters and thank you so much for gathering them together. Online research has afforded us the luxury of memorabilia without the cost.
