one of the more difficult of bunuels films to interpret/make sense of, but i feel, as also is the case with bunuels other films dealing with religion, is that bunuel aims to criticize and ridicule people and their foolish ways and their misinterpretations of God's word and the Bible, rather than God himself, its certainly the case here with all the characters, even Simon himself, as they are ungrateful, misguided and foolish, proves Bunuel can make a good film in only 45 mins, and has much more to offer than some films 2.5 hours in length

A very interesting idea, and a pretty bizarre movie.

Let me begin by saying it gets a 100% critical approval rating. I started watching this late last night but the moment it began my sleepiness went completely away. It was the same deep spiritual profundity i felt watching Dreyer's "Passion of Joan of Arc" that this film evoked. WTH is Bunuel doing with this film? How is it possible an atheist can create a work of art with this extreme level of spirituality?? So spiritual, it left me awestruck and drained , and it's only 45 minutes. Apparently, funding ran out so it could not be longer, but i think that just added to its intensity. Very loosely based on the life of St. Simon Stylites, is this film making fun of God, Jesus, all the saints and martyrs, past, present and future?? Maybe, perhaps, but i honestly think not. I think the bizarre ending is the key. Some will hate it, probably most people do, but the more i think about it , the more i smile.

Even though Bunuel never got to complete Simon, it is still one of the funnier films that I've ever seen

Far from mocking his penitent protagonist, Buñuel values his tenacity of belief even while seeing his sacrifice as a useless monument
