Alex, thanks for info! 

Your post reminded me of one Danish film critic, Christian Braad Thomsen. 
He once wrote about Don Louis Bunuel's "Milky Way" (one of my all-time 
favourites, I've been hopelessly Bunuel fan since I was 14 though haven't 
seen all of his films), how it was first film where Bunuel was able to 
balance form and content, and especially to do it as surrealist. 

It was only after that breakthrough that succesful (was it really?) late 
trilogy in all its richness was possible. And one could add that it was 
only after that, that Fellini was able to make "Roma" and "Amarcord"... 

Yours, Jukka L
