Animation The true story of how Luis Buñuel made his second movie.

	Author	Review
United States	Peter Debruge Variety	"Though undeniably charming, Buñuel can be a difficult character to like here, but that’s the point"	POS
United States	Jonathan Holland The Hollywood Reporter	"[It] does ample justice to its subject (...) 'Bunuel' is above all a good story elegantly told (...) Where the visuals really do bring it home is in their attention to lighting"	POS
United States	Glenn Kenny The New York Times	"The animation is handsome, the graphic settings understated but intelligently detailed. The detailing extends to the work of the voice cast"	POS
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"[It] is most striking for how it illustrates that animation isn’t a mere subcategory of cinema (...) This movie is more rewarding as a light human drama"	POS
United States	Robert Abele Los Angeles Times	"Simó’s sensitive portrait of an often-insensitive genius also belongs to that category of biopic that prefers mining a key chapter to cramming in the whole life"	POS
	Alfonso Rivera Cineuropa	"What the viewer sees in this enchanting film, infused with a cinephile spirit, isn’t just the physical journey of an inimitable filmmaker, but also his personal and artistic transformation."	POS
