Review of Mouchette (1967)

Review of Written on the Wind (1956)

By Ewan M (40) on 06 Jun 2007

Review of Into Great Silence (2005)

By Ewan M (40) on 30 May 2007

Review of That Obscure Object of Desire (1977)

By Ewan M (40) on 30 May 2007

Bunuel's usual acerbic wit is in evidence, with the dual actresses playing the same role, a dapperly misogynist anti-hero and an ongoing subplot…
