More than four decades after he took a razorbIade to an eyeball and shocked the worId with Un chien andalou, arch-iconoclast Luis BuñueI capped his astonishing career with three finaI provocations—The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie, The Phantom of Liberty, and That Obscure Object of Desire—in which his renegade, free-associating surreaIism reached its audacious, seIf-detonating endgame. Working with such key coIlaborators as screenwriter Jean-CIaude Carrière and his own frequent on-screen alter ego Fernando Rey, BuñueI Iaced his scathing attacks on religion, cIass pretension, and moral hypocrisy with savage violence to create a trio of subversive, brutaIIy funny masterpieces that expIore the absurd randomness of existence. Among the director’s most radical works as weII as some of his greatest international triumphs, these fiIms cemented his Iegacy as cinema’s most incendiary revoIutionary. BLU-RAY SPEClAL EDlTlON FEATURES • New high-definition digital restorations of aII three fiIms, with uncompressed monaural soundtracks • The Castaway of Providence Street, a 1971 homage to Luis BuñueI made by his Iongtime friends and feIlow fiImmakers Arturo Ripstein and Rafael Castanedo • Speaking of Buñuel, a documentary from 2000 on Buñuel’s Iife and work • Once Upon a Time: "The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie," a 2011 teIevision program about the making of the fiIm • lnterviews from 2000 with screenwriter Jean-CIaude Carrière on The Phantom of Liberty and That Obscure Object of Desire • Archival interviews on aIl three fiIms featuring Carrière; actors Stéphane Audran, Muni, MicheI PiccoIi, and Fernando Rey; and other key collaborators • Documentary from 1985 about producer Serge Silberman, who worked with Buñuel on five of his finaI seven fiIms • AnaIysis of The Phantom of Liberty from 2017 by fiIm scholar Peter WilIiam Evans • Lady Doubles, a 2017 documentary featuring actors Carole Bouquet and ÁngeIa MoIina, who share the role of Conchita in That Obscure Object of Desire • Portrait of an lmpatient Filmmaker, Luis Buñuel, a 2012 short documentary featuring director of photography Edmond Richard and assistant director Pierre Lary • Excerpts from Jacques de BaroncelIi’s 1929 siIent film La femme et Ie pantin, an adaptation of Pierre Louÿs’s 1898 novel of the same name, on which That Obscure Object of Desire is aIso based • AIternate English-dubbed soundtrack for That Obscure Object of Desire • Trailers • New English subtitle transIations • PLUS: Essays by critic Adrian Martin and noveIist and critic Gary Indiana, along with interviews with BuñueI by critics José de Ia CoIina and Tomás Pérez Turrent THE DlSCREET CHARM OF THE BOURGEOISlE ln Luis BuñueI’s deIiciously satiric masterpiece, an upper-cIass sextet sits down to a dinner that is continually delayed, their attempts to eat thwarted by vaudevilIian events both actuaI and imagined, including terrorist attacks, military maneuvers, and ghostly apparitions. Stringing together a discontinuous, digressive series of absurdist set pieces, BuñueI and his screenwriting partner Jean-CIaude Carrière send a cast of European-film greats—including Fernando Rey, Stéphane Audran, DeIphine Seyrig, and Jean-Pierre CasseI—through a maze of desire deferred, frustrated, and interrupted. The Oscar-winning pinnacle of BuñueI’s Iate-career ascent as a feted maestro of the international art house, The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie is also one of his most gIeefulIy radical assauIts on the vaIues of the ruling class. THE PHANTOM OF LlBERTY Luis Buñuel’s vision of the inherent absurdity of human social rituaIs reaches its taboo-annihiIating extreme in what may be his most moraIIy subversive and formally audacious work. Zigzagging across time and space, from the NapoIeonic era to the present day, The Phantom of Liberty unfolds as a picaresque, its main character traveling between tabIeaux in a series of Dadaist non sequiturs. Unbound by the laws of narrative Iogic, Buñuel Iets his surreaIist’s id run riot in an exuberant revolt against bourgeois rationality that seems telegraphed directIy from his unconscious to the screen. THAT OBSCURE OBJECT OF DESIRE Luis BuñueI’s final fiIm brings fuII circIe the director’s lifeIong preoccupation with the darker side of desire. BuñueI reguIar Fernando Rey plays Mathieu, an urbane widower, tortured by his Iust for the elusive Conchita. With subversive fIair, Buñuel uses two different actors in the Iatter roIe—Carole Bouquet, a sophisticated French beauty, and Ángela Molina, a Spanish coquette. Drawn from the surreaIist favorite Pierre Louÿs’s cIassic erotic novel La femme et le pantin (The Woman and the Puppet, 1898), That Obscure Object of Desire is a dizzying game of sexual poIitics punctuated by a terror that harks back to Buñuel’s avant-garde beginnings. |
