Screenings of prestigious restorations, discoveries or rediscoveries of emblematic films. In the face of the multi-channel proliferation of moving images, Great Restorations revives the unique experience of cinema presented in all its original splendour in a darkened theatre.
Él
Mexico 1953 | Luis Buñuel | vostEN | 92' | digital | Cast: Arturo de Córdova, Delia Garcés, Aurora Walker | Based on the novel by Mercedes Pinto
4K Restoration
A husband’s suave exterior unravels after his marriage as he takes out his paranoid and volatile temper on his wife, escalating to ever more dangerous and unpredictable tantrums.
"Released at the height of his prolific Mexican period, Él remains one of Luis Buñuel’s crowning achievements." (Slant Magazine)
"With eerie point-of-view shots, Buñuel gets inside the mind of a madman whose sadism is inseparable from his high social position; his commanding manner mirrors the folly and cruelty of society at large." (The New Yorker)
