Tristana R2 (Uk Import) - Bunuel, Luis
Releasedatum: 25 april 2005
In 1930s Toledo, newly orphaned Tristana (Catherine Deneuve) is left in the care of aging atheist and fallen aristocrat Don Lope (Fernando Rey). The dutiful and innocent girl duly becomes his mistress - but when she meets handsome, young but uninspiring Horacio (Franco Nero), power changes hands and Tristana becomes increasingly embittered when fate plays a nasty trick on her. A classic, perfectly cast and beautifully photographed film, Luis Bunuel's Tristana is a twisted, hauting study of sexual politics and the nature of freedom, and it was Bunuel's last film to be shot in his native Spain. Tristana and Don Lope are both passionate about freedom of choice but they both find their choices regulated by unconscious desire - a recurring Bunuelian theme that finds its perfect embodiment in these two fascinating characters whom we see chaning before our very eyes.
