Even Dwarves Started Small


HOMBRE

"This bunch are low on redeeming social merit. They are mean, petty, vulgar, selfish, and destructive, just like Buneul's recurrent beggers: men and women as confused and undirected as most of the world, trapped in the thought, if not the manners, of the society that has rejected them as criminals and deviants."
--Werner Herzog

After showing this film to my film studies class (after we had watched Pierrot Le Fou), one of my students asked, "Can we watch something normal? These films are really starting to mess with my head."
I answered him back, "That's enlightenment."
