Synopsis:
This dreamlike farce explores a surrealistic dimension with extroadinary cinematic inventiveness in this story of a wealthy middle-aged man who falls hopelessly in love with a woman. The heroine is played by two actress in lvoe with a young woman. The heroine is played by two actresses with the voice provided by yet a third interpreter reflecting the schizophrenic way in which the male protagonist responds to the object of his desire. Bunuel's final film is a sardonic critique of bourgeois repression and male subjectivity summarizinf the best features of his directorial style.
