840 - The Executioner (1963)
Manage episode 427835037 series 2779324
Internationally-neglected Spanish auteur Luis García Berlanga enters the collection neither with a bang, a whimper, a chop, nor a zap… but with a silenced gasp. His celebrated black comedy somehow managed to slip past Franco’s censors to show us a man slowly, haplessly, and inevitably lured with only the best intentions to utterly compromise his moral values. It’s a dirty job, but somebody has to be suckered into doing it.
