The discreet charm of the Bourgeoisie : Thursday 5 pm

The discreet charm of the Bourgeoisie : Thursday 5 pm.

Luts Bunuel is indoubtedly the most successful surrealist filmmaker, if only because he has done more than any other to affect the industry. His poetic conception and imagery has often been compared to Renoir ; his use of major European stars has many ramifications in their other work. This is perhaps his finest film, an extremely funny and subversive empose of the bourgeoisie. [Starring Fernando Rey and Delphine Seyrig — 1972].
