Vidiots, Los Angeles

**Screenwriters**: Julio Alejandro, Luis Buñuel **Producer**: Gustavo Alatriste How’s this for a reputation: *Viridiana* won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival, was banned in its home country and condemned by the Vatican for indecency upon its initial release, *and* was named the greatest Spanish film of all time in 2016. But you’d expect no less from a provocateur like Luis Buñuel, whose movies love to thumb their nose at social conventions, authority figures, and matters of good taste. Here, he presents us with the story of nun-in-training Viridiana (Silvia Pinal), who finds her faith tested by sexual perversions, disturbed relatives, and a group of beggars eager to commit blasphemy. See it soon before we’re condemned too! **Picks from the Video Store** Looking for more Luis Buñuel to watch tonight? He’s got his own director’s section with these delights and more! *The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, Tristana, That Obscure Object of Desire* **Accessibility Options**: Open Captions, Amplified Audio, please see the box office for devices.
