The Discreet Charm of
the Bourgeoisie
In Luis Bunuel's deliciously satiric masterpiece, and upper-class sextet
sits down to dinner but never eats, their attempts continually thwarted
by a vaudevillian mixture of events both actual and imagined. Fernando
Rey, Stephane Audran, Delphine Seyring, and Jean-Pierre Cassel head
the extraordinary cast in this 1972 Oscar winner for Best Foreign Film.
