The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie

Spanish master Luis Buñuel delivered a masterpiece with this surreal comedy. A group of friends' attempt to have a meal is interrupted for various reasons including dreams and nightmares. Brilliantly written by Buñuel and Jean-Claude Carrière and executed by a stellar cast and crew makes for an unforgettable film of one kind like many of Buñuel's masterpieces. The stellar cast includes Fernando Rey, Stéphane Audran, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Delphine Seyrig and Bulle Ogier amongst others. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
