Product description
Born in Spain, Luis Bunuel is widely credited as the founder of surrealist cinema. This essential collection includes some of his best known work: Diary of a Chambermaid (1964), Belle de Jour (1967), Tristana (1970), The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie (1972) and That Obscure Object of Desire (1977) - as well as equally brilliant but lesser-known films such as The Phantom of Liberty (1974) and The Milky Way (1969). Although he drew memorable performances from iconic actresses of the period such as Catherine Deneuve and Jeanne Moreau, Bunuel generally worked with a favourite group of actors including Michel Piccoli, Pierre Clémenti, Muni and his faithful alter ego Fernando Rey. Enter the surreal world of Bunuel, where an entire dinner party suddenly finds themselves inexplicably unable to leave the room and where the devil, if unable to tempt a saint with a pretty girl, will fly him to a disco.

All these movies are film making of the highest order and totally intriguing and compelling ... and as a box set represent excellent value for money ... ( however if you are actually are a surrealist ... money should never ever be a main concern in life ! ) ... the prints are bit soft soft and wobbly but I remember seeing the movies years ago .. and they were always a bit like that ... there is the advantage of English subtitles if your French is rusty ...
These are wonderful memorable masterworks superbly acted by great stars and bear repeated viewing and analysis ... highly recommended



Also, all the films contain subtitles that can be turned off (of course) and extras, like the marvelous documentary found on "The Diary of a Chambermaid" disc "A corpse in the swamp". I will return after watching everything and posting all the info here but i wanted to write this provisory review because amazon has written on this page that someone complained that this is an inadequate product, and it certainly isn't the case.
