• Resumen

  • The aim of this text is to analyze the subversive pedagogical value of this work, directed by Luis Buñuel in Mexico,1950, as shown in the oneiric sequence of the dream, which has been highlighted in different contexts as one of themost important characteristics of the Buñuelian cinema, giving him a unique place in the history of cinematographiccreation. This value has not only a paradigmatic dimension (which is comparable with those of Griffith, Eisenstein,John Ford, Hitchcock, Bergman and Godard), but, in fact, it implies another most important pedagogical dimensionas a source of subversion of the reading and appropriation mechanisms that the spectators have been acquiringalong with their film and cinematographic cultures – which means, in fact, their film literacy. In this text we willanalyse the symbolic and the intertextual dimensions that give the character of obvious surreal content to the oneiricfilm excerpt in LOS OLVIDADOS – a film text within the film text - comparing the Buñuelian script indications withthe final result of the filmed audiovisual sequence.
