1950 film by Luis Buñuel

《动物集》是阿雷奥拉的一部精彩的微型小说集。在书中，阿雷奥拉用散文诗般的语言描绘了二十三种动物。阿雷奥拉表面上写的是动物，但文中折射出的却是他对人的看法。每篇故事的篇幅都非常短小，但阿雷奥拉总是能够用寥寥数笔表达出丰富而深刻的寓意。阿雷奥拉的比喻直接、干脆，不带丝毫犹豫，有时甚至是定义性的，密度极大的比喻交织结成动物凿实的轮廓线条，如银针笔所作的插画一般笃定，我们也因此得以感受到本体与喻体之间那更为深刻和决定性的相符相合。

The drug lord and his henchmen mistake el Mariachi for the killer, Azul, and chase him around town trying to kill him and get his guitar case.
