That Obscure Object of Desire

Midnite weekend screenings happen on Friday & Saturday nights (meaning arrive on Friday and/or Saturday night by 11:45pm for seating, the movie starts after midnite)!

Director: Luis Buñuel Run Time: 103 min. Format: 35mm Rating: R Release Year: 1977 Language: French with English subtitles

Starring: Fernando Rey, Carole Bouquet, Ángela Molina

After dumping a bucket of water on a beautiful young woman from the window of a train car, wealthy Frenchman Mathieu (Fernando Rey), regales his fellow passengers with the story of the dysfunctional relationship between himself and the young woman in question, a fiery 19-year-old flamenco dancer named Conchita (played alternately by Carole Bouquet and Angela Molina). What follows is a tale of cruelty, depravity and lies — the very building blocks of love.
