In Reply to: Discreet Charm is not Bunuels best film posted by grinagog on January 23, 2004 at 02:56:13:
May even be more accessible, for a start in his work, beside his wonderful " Le Chien Andalou " or " LīAge Dīor " who are still and more than ever fascinating pieces of early cinema.
And you still got Catherine on top..( or better said in the laid..)
Of course " Belle " is the better film.

Thanks Patrick, I had forgotten that one. Bunuel wrote a stunning autobiography; apparently the original printing is in French and the USA released English paperback is somewhat abbreviated
I had a copy of the English translation as a hardback which was available in the late 1980s, lent it out, and never got it back, if you read this you will see why its a book that once lent out will never come back!

You welcome Graham!
It is a bio I always want to read, but always forgot to...So now it was the right reminder...And just place an order at Amazon.fr...So in a certain kind..Thank you!
Lending things out is a terrible thing to do, at the moment I am deseperately looking for missing DVDīs..Years ago it was LPīs and books....Sometimes I am enraged at myself to do the lending...And every time I do it again..I must possede a weak character!
" Nazarin " was a film who left a profund mark in me too. Did you see it?
The reason I have a huge movie collection on laserdisc and DVD is freedom, freedom to watch whatever I want whenever I want. I can't tell you how many times I've gone looking for a film and can't find it because I loaned it out to someone and I even forget the someone. The same applies to CDs.
I still do.
I can not manage to say " No. "
I feel some kind of " Pat, you can not keep this beautiful things to yourself " even at the danger to not retrieve them.
And boy am I tired to say to people...donīt forget to get them back to me...Until I have all, but forgotten myself.
...to have many friends, and a poor memory...It works fine with discs, videos, DVDs,...

...then you borrow from them, while your poor memory doesnīt haunt you if you never return them...Easy, isnīt it?
Regards
It takes TWO friends with bad memories to build up ONE biblioteca....
Good one..Bernardo!

I, OTOH, never do. Or almost never.
That is what I always WANTED to do...But lazy as I am.....
No, I must confess thats one I have yet to see, but I will try and find it on laser disc or video

It was politically tainted ( marxism ) and not without // to Pasolini " Gospel of St Matthew, the first was made in 1958 the later in 1965, I think.
Strong films!
