Just ran Never Weaken for my special education students. These are seventh
and eighth grade kids with emotional disturbances who come to me after being
incarcerated. They not only thoroughly enjoyed the film, they actually
would jump and react in such a fashion at the thrill sequences.

These films are indeed timeless.

Have you tried "The Milky Way" yet? I would think they'd love it!

Not yet, it's certainly worth considering.

Now, really, if you're going to show them Bunuel, I'd at least start
with something more accessible like Los Olvidados or Discreet Charm--

While you're at it, try some more of his earlier bits like HIGH AND
DIZZY and DR. JACK. Garunteed for entertainment. Have you tried
Keaton yet?
