Not very good but well filmed
11 December 2019
By the strong hand of Luis Buñuel and with the beautiful and excellent player Simone Signoret. Anyway I hope that no animals were killed during the filming (snakes included) which is strictly forbidden. The story is not an exceptionally deep one but is attractive and suggestive enough to follow. In a gold mine in South America there is the diggers' camp. It happened then that the State nationalized the mine an forbade the diggers to have its control. A revolt started then between the diggers and the government troops that were sent to the place to take the mine's control. Many people were shot but a small group managed to escape into the jungle were they started to walk away from the mine spot. While they were travelling conflicts were not absent among them and they suffered a lot of several troubles. A movie well performed and well directed enough and that is all.
