SKINOPSIS

Who says he peaked with Un Chien Andalou? We'll take tits over slit open eyeballs any day of the week. Carole Bouquet bares hers repeatedly, and Angela Molina shows hers and her bush too while stripping for some Japanese businessman. We don't see why they're obscure. Surely, a couple of sweet pieces like these would be desired by all.
REVIEW
Buñuel's surreal comedy of the sexes stars Rey as an aging aristocrat who falls obsessively in love with a beguiling but unapproachable woman, played by two different actresses: the detached Bouquet and the voluptuous Molina. Buñuel's final film takes us mischievously through the enigma of human passion. (French with English subtitles)
