Definitely a classic that shows the dark side of relationships and human desire.

What a man wants.
What a woman expects.
The two looks with which he sees her.
The duality with which she treats him.
The real and the surreal.
And a desire carried to sack.

Typical film of Buñuel's concerns.

Luis Buñuel’s final film feels pleasantly familiar, concerning itself with many of his core themes including the horny rich old man chasing after his young muse - in this case a flamenco dancer named Conchita - in a genius move played by two different actresses, sometimes “changing faces” even in the middle of a scene. Their relationship is portrayed as an endless cycle alternating between mutual affection and rejection, once again underscoring Buñuel’s understanding of life and all of human desire as a cosmic joke poking fun at people endlessly chasing seemingly elusive goals that - if they are, against all odds, achieved - turn out to lead into just another nightmare of unfulfilled desires.
