Tristana (Bunuel, 1970): Prince Charles Cinema, 12.45pm


This film is part of the Luis Bunuel season and is also being screened on March 22nd. You can find all the details here.

Chicago Reader review:
Luis Buñuel’s 1970 masterwork, adapted from a novel by Benito Perez Galdos. Catherine Deneuve is a young woman unhappy with the constraints of turn-of-the-century Spanish society; her mild revolt is rewarded by an amputated leg. Buñuel conjures with Freudian imagery, outrageous humor, and a quiet, lyrical camera style to create one of his most complex and complete works, a film that continues to disturb and transfix.

Here (and above) is the trailer.
