The Milky Way (1969) ****

The Milky Way (1969) is Luis Buñuel's picaresque pilgrimage concerning two vagrant vagabonds (and other characters) as they travel across time and space, encountering various people (including Jesus, the Virgin Mary, and the Devil), all of whom have discussions about Christianity, dogma, and heresies (in great, historically accurate, detail). It's a surreal satire featuring many of Buñuel's usual players, and a perfect example of his charm and style—opening up plenty of questions, and never providing answers.
