El (1952) [MultiSub] - [Luis Buñuel]
This Strange Passion // O Alucinado // Torments (1953) [Luis Buñuel] - Francisco is rich, rather strict on principles, and still a bachelor. After meeting Gloria by accident, he is suddenly intent on her becoming his wife and courts her until she agrees to marry him. Francisco is a dedicated husband, but little by little his passion starts to exhibit disturbing traits. Nevertheless, Gloria meets with scepticism as she expresses her worries to their acquaintances.
----------------------------------------
El retrato surrealista de un acomodado y devoto hombre de mediana edad, camino de la locura por sus celos patológicos y sus aficiones enfermizas por los rituales religiosos, fue unánimemente aclamado por la crítica, que alabó la irónica dramatización con que Buñuel muestra los efectos de las obsesiones sobre el matrimonio y la sexualidad. (FILMAFFINITY)
----------------------------------------
"Desquiciado melodrama, una película brutal, desesperada (...) Buñuel ahonda en los abismos humanos y crea una catarata de cine." (Miguel Ángel Palomo: Diario El País)

1952 vw beetle commercial: oldest EVER!
http://www.painteddesigns.nl
One of the earliest vw commercials in existance. It's origin ins german and it is made in de late '40s or early '50s, not later than 1953.
Did you notice that the car in de beginning of the clip isn't even a real beetle? It's a model, pulled forward with a thread. In the first second you can even see the shadow of a hand pushing the model!
From the DVD 'Legend on wheels'. Wanna have this DVD packed with 2 hours of high quality digitally remastered old vw commercials? The DVD really brings you back to the '60s and '70s. Send an email to: beetlejuice150@hotmail.com

A Is For Atom (1952)
Although the "Atoms for Peace" campaign was formally launched in 1957, corporate America began to promote peaceful uses of atomic energy as early as the first few months after Hiroshima. A Is For Atom, an artifact of this effort, takes this highly loaded and threatening issue straight to the public in an attempt to "humanize" the figure of the atom.
A Is For Atom speaks of five atomic "giants" which "man has released from within the atom's heart": the warrior and destroyer, the farmer, the healer, the engineer and the research worker. Each is pictured as a majestic, shimmering outline figure towering over the earth. "But all are within man's power Ñ subject to his command," says the narrator reassuringly, and our future depends "on man's wisdom, on his firmness in the use of that power."
General Electric, a long-time manufacturer of electric appliances, power generation plants, and nuclear weapon components, is staking a claim here, asserting their interest in managing and exploiting this new and bewildering technology. Its pitch: this is powerful, frightening, near-apocalyptic technology, but managed with firmness, it can be profitable and promising. This "Trust us with the control of technology, and we'll give you progress without end" pitch resembles what we've seen in films like General Motors' To New Horizons (on the Ephemeral Films disc). But the automobile, of course, wasn't a weapon of mass destruction.
In its first two years of release, A Is For Atom was seen by over seven million people in this version and a shortened ten-minute theatrical cut. In 1953 it won first prizes in both the Columbus (Ohio) and Turin (Italy) Film Festivals, the Freedoms Foundation Award, an "oscar" from the Cleveland Film Festival, and a Merit Award from Scholastic Teacher. In 1954 it won first prize in the Stamford Film Festival, a Golden Reel Award from the American Film Assembly, and a second Grand Award from the Venice Film Festival. The film was remade in the mid-sixties and is still available for rental.
Like other John Sutherland films, A Is For Atom presents a portentious message in a visually delightful and often self-deprecating manner. "Element Town" and its quirky inhabitants, including hyped-up Radium and somnolent Lead, is unforgettable, and the animated chain reaction manages to avoid any suggestion of nuclear fear.
