The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie 50th Anniversary Edition (4KUHD+BR)

Don Rafael, ambassador of the small South American republic of Miranda (Fernando Rey) is friends with two elegant bourgeois Parisian couples, the Thévenots (Paul Frankeur and Delphine Seyrig) and the Sénéchals (Jean-Pierre Cassel and Stéphane Audran). Together with the two husbands, Rafael runs a lucrative narcotics trade. Repeatedly, the friends try to meet for a joint dinner - adverse circumstances thwart the plan each time: sometimes they all get the date wrong, sometimes the dead restaurant owner is laid out right in the dining room or a maneuvering troop disrupts the elegant banquet. (1 4K Ultra HD + 1 Blu-ray)

Luis Buñuel's grandiose, Oscar-winning satire about a pleasure-seeking upper middle class that clings to meaningless rituals and labels presents its mockery of this social class, which runs through Buñuel's life's work, in all its bizarreness and surreality.
