This is easily the worst Luis Bunuel movie I've seen. It stars singer Libertad Lamarque which may interest some viewers. His usual obsessions with religion and sex aren't here. The movie starts out in an intriguing way with the characters in jail but then they go to a casino and the plot got tedious. It had the feel of one of those undistinctive musicals that were made back in Hollywood in the day. If this wasn't a Bunuel movie it would be forgotten. I don't understand why his movie Los Olividados (The Young and the Damned) is not on DVD but this is. I watched Los Olividados when I was a teenager and I remember really liking it. When will that movie get restored?
