(1965) Simon Of The Desert/ Simón del desierto
(In Spanish with English subtitles)
Forty minute movie from surrealist writer/ director Luis Buñuel metaphor about a person who functions like a Jesus Christ type of character whose name is 'Simon' (Claudio Brook) who while standing tall on top of a catacomb unable to come down, he is then gets tempted by the devil posing as a girl or other expressed through many people to give in means of temptation whether it's lust or food. Self-explanatory but very fact of the matter in terms of it's messages. Somewhat his continuation toward his criticism regarding Christianity.
