Product Description
A group of bourgeois cosmopolitans are invited to a mansion for dinner and inexplicably find themselves unable to leave, in Luis Bu?uel's daring masterpiece The Exterminating Angel. Made just one year after his international sensation Viridiana, this is a furthering of Bu?uel's wicked takedown of the rituals and dependencies of the frivolous upper classes, full of eerie and hilarious absurdity.
