Le Charme Discret de la Bourgeoisie (1972 Luis Buñuel)

Written by Buñuel and Jean-Claude Carrière, Oscar-nominated (won BAFTA), winner of the Best Foreign Film Oscar and BAFTA. Interestingly didn't pick up French Oscars or Cannes prizes.

Fabulous cast: Fernando Rey, Delphine Seyrig, Bulle Ogier, Stéphane Audran, Jean-Pierre Cassel, Paul Frankeur, Julien Berthau (Monsignor).

Photographed by Edmond Richard.

Most enjoyed performances. Very funny. Dreams in dreams (soldier). Inspired The Meaning of Life? (Probably.)
