Great movie Viridiana, as many others from Buñuel, like Belle de Jour or Discreet Charm of Bourguoisie. I recommend you a spanish movie where the struggle between Apollonians and Dyonisians is one of the topics: "Bearn or the living-room of the dolls" with Fernando Rey and Angela Molina,both present too in Discreet Charm etc.excellent spanish actors, directs Jaime Chàvarri.(1983). Fun to be characters in the movie are absolutely Dyonisians, and there I heard a line I have never forgotten: "Only paradises that exist are lost paradises."
