That Obscure Object Of Desire

Luis Bunuel's final film explodes with eroticism, bringing full circle the director's lifelong preoccupation with the darker side of desire. Bunuel regular Fernando Rey plays Mathieu, an urbane widower, tortured by his lust for the elusive Conchita. With characteristic subversive flare, Bunuel uses two different actresses in the lead -- Angela Molina as a Spanish coquette and Carole Bouquet, a sophisticated French beauty.
