From case cover:
Archibald poursuit sa vie durant un fantasme de son enfance : il est persuadé d'avoir tué sa gouvernante de déc;enchant une boîte à musique qui axauce tout désir de mort. Adulte, la list de ses victimes s'allonge... Fransisco, riche homme d'affaires mexicain, tombe amoureux d'une femme croisée à l'église. Une fois marié, il devient dúne jalousie, et tombe dans la folie meurtrière...
Profondément surréalistes par lírruption du vacarme de l'inconscient au coeur de la banalité apparente de l'existence ces deux chefs-d'oeuvre de Luis Buñuel jettent la violence des pulsions humaines à la face de la respectabilité sociale. From IMDb:
With a strange and powerful obsession stemming from a pampered childhood during the tumultuous years of the Mexican Revolution, the affluent bachelor and suave ceramist, Archibaldo de la Cruz, oscillates effortlessly between fantasy and reality, desire and hallucination. Compelled to taste again and again the delicious fruit of depravity that triggers an intense dark satisfaction, Archibaldo won't shy away from using one of his many shave-ready straight razors, bent on going to great lengths to quench his lust. Undoubtedly, death encircles the scheming Archibaldo, and the targets are always innocent women; however, is he truly capable of murder?
