This review of Pedro Poyato’s book, El sistema estético de Luis Buñuel (Bilbao, University of País Vasco, 2011), highlights aspects such as the impulse-images of Calanda’s genius; the ‘ugly-ist’ iconography; the suspension of the meaning of the narrative; the declarative statements turned into terms of aggression; the ‘diminished’ narrators; the free adaptation that turns the literary text of departure into the final film; and the construction of the surrealist form, which does not so much follow Buñuel’s written scripts as the takes he elaborates based on his words and often those of others.
