One of Luis Buñuel landmark films, Tristana was adapted from Benito Pérez Galdós’ novel and stars the hypnotic Catherine Deneuve and Fernando Rey. Full of erotic manipulation and symbolic actions, this in an idiosyncratic assault on bourgeois moralism, set in the conservative Spain of the 1930s.

Shot in brilliant Eastmancolor, Death in the Garden is one of Luis Buñuel’s most overlooked gems: a pulsating, far-side-of-the-world adventure film alive with the master’s surrealist gestures and subversive attitude. The star-studded cast includes Simone Signoret and Michel Piccoli.
