There are dirty and grotesquely petrifying people on Mallorca. Archbishops, standard-bearers of the civilized world, come ashore and find the indigenous population literally physically decaying. The conquerors call themselves “Mallorcans” and the governor sets a cornerstone of the new era. Yet his speech is interrupted by the cries of lovers: a man and woman – unconcerned with the crowd – are rolling in the mud, which represents the first sign of the revolt against imperial Rome. – Luis Buñuel used Age of Gold to demystify all fundamental articles of law and order, such as the church, family, army, and police, and subsequently emerged as world cinema’s most controversial director.
