Movie Reviews of Luis Bunuel's Death in the Garden - La mort en ce jardin
Movie Review: Great character study...
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to agree with one one of the reviewers, this is an excellent Bunuel film!
The story is quite simple; how greed and corruption affects all of us, (especially the kind represented by established authority), and how some of us are able to balance out these flaws within ourselves.
The photography is quite good, and an excellent cast: Simone Signoret, Georges Marchal, Michel Piccoli, Charles Varnel and Tito Junco, give us an excellent character study with plenty of other elements as well.
I can just imagine how much more Luis Bunuel would have shown us in his films, if he wasn't at the mercy of 'the censors' and a hostile and closed minded world!
This was a Franco-Mexican production, and the picture has been restored well for this DVD release.
Summary of Luis Bunuel's Death in the Garden - La mort en ce jardin
Amid a revolution in a South American mining outpost, a band of ill-starred fugitives-a roguish adventurer (Georges Marchal), a local hooker (Simone Signoret), a priest (Michel Piccoli), an aging diamond miner (Charles Vanel) and his deaf-mute daughter are forced to flee for their lives into the jungle. Starving, exhausted and stripped of their old identities, they wander desperately lured by one deceptive promise of salvation after another. Shot in brilliant Eastmancolor and featuring a star-studded cast, Death in the Garden is a pulsating adventure film, alive with Surrealist gestures, making it classic Luis Buñuel. In French and Spanish with English subtitles. Further Information: Special Features: Mastered in HD from a 35mm archive print. Audio commentary by film scholar Ernesto R. Acevedo-Munoz, author of 'Buñuel and Mexico' New video interviews with actor Michael Piccoli and film scholar Victor Fuentes Booklet featuring essays by Javier Espada, Juan-Luis Buñuel and Susan Hayward New and improved English subtitle translationSimilar DVD Movies
