The Discreet Charm of The Bourgeoisie (50th Anniversary) (Vintage World Cinema)(4K UHD and Blu-ray)

Luis Buñuel's 1972 surreal, hilarious and deranging social satire on the hypocrisy of the upper-class has been restored in stunning 4K for its 50th Anniversary. Considered one of his most successful and iconic films by critics and audiences alike, The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie received the Academy Awardr for Best Foreign Language Film and a nomination for Best Original Screenplay. The Ambassador of the small South American country of Miranda is trafficking in drugs with some French bourgeois friends of his. But every time they want to have dinner together, their plans are put off due to unexpected events. In their quest of a lavish feast, the dividing-line between reality and dreams becomes unclear for each guest, leading to complete and utter ridicule.
