Tristana (Bunuel, 1970): Cine Lumiere, 3.30pm
This film, part of the Catherine Deneuve season at Cine Lumiere, also screens on other dates including Sunday 28th January when the movie will be introduced by film critic and programmer Roberto Oggiano. Full 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.
