Land Without Bread is entirely fictitious, yet looks like an agitprop film. Fascinating and full of wit, if you have the capacity to detach yourself from the subject.
Un Chien Andalou is a must-see, if you want to know where life has taken Bunuel later on in his creativity. Truly, one of the greatest films ever. After watching it I figured out that Bunuel is the one filmmaker that influenced most of the famous "suprnatural" directors of today, of course if they have the balls(i.e. cojones) to admit it.
I will also go ahead and recommend L'Age D'Or, Robinson Crusoe(great cinematography) and El Angel Exterminador(a prequel of sorts to the Charme).
I hate saying this, but they don't make films like this anymore.
They make motion pictures now.
