Review

A star rating of 5 out of 5.

David Parkinson

The last film that Luis Buñuel shot in his native Spain is not only a searing indictment of the Franco regime, but also an attack on the Spanish people as a whole for allowing their country to be consumed by corruption and decay. Set in Toledo in the late 1920s, the film explores the relationship between a depraved nobleman and his ward, who is determined to avenge the seduction that ruined her life. Revelling in his sins, Fernando Rey is superb as the pitiless Don Lope, while Catherine Deneuve is at her chilling best as the victim turned tormentor. It's bitter, biting and brilliant.
