DESCRIPTION:VIRIDIANA  Filmmaker Luis Buñuel's statement that "every one of my films 
 is meant to be pornographic" comes into lucid fruition in this incredible 
 film.  What could be more pornographic than seeing an innocent, holy fool 
 degraded into seeing the world as it really is?  In 1959, the Franco 
 government was convinced it would help lighten their fascist image by 
 inviting Buñuel back to Spain and giving him some money to make a movie.  
 They must have breathed a sigh of relief when Buñuel said he would base 
 his movie on the life of an obscure Spanish Saint, Viridiana.  But when it 
 was finished the government took one look and was so horrified by what it 
 saw that it threw Buñuel out of Spain permanently and tried to get the 
 rest of the world to ban his movie.  The rest of the world, instead, 
 started giving it prizes!   1961  FREE  Before and after the film, 
 everyone's invited to indulge in our Humanist Coffee House.\n
