Abstract

El Angel exterminador is an "auto sacramental" for our time and it is more dose to the theatrical Spanish tradition than to the French existentialist works to which many critics use to compare the Bunuel's films. This essay is an attempt to explore some aspects of biblical and literary motifs which interfere on the structure of film . One can observe important episodes related to de Genesis, to the Apocalypses and to Calderón de la Barca "auto sacramental" El gran teatro del mundo.
