About Luis Bunuel
Luis Bunuel directed more than thirty features across Spain, Mexico and France, starting with the Un Chien Andalou short in 1929 with Salvador Dali and L Age d Or in 1930. Los Olvidados arrived in 1950 from his Mexican period, followed by Viridiana in 1961 which shared the Palme d Or and The Exterminating Angel in 1962.
Diary of a Chambermaid came in 1964, Belle de Jour in 1967, Tristana in 1970 and The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie in 1972 which won the Oscar for best foreign film. That Obscure Object of Desire in 1977 closed his career. Bunuel died in 1983. Watch these ten in release order, since each phase builds on the last.
Good to know
These are standalone stories with no shared continuity, so there is no chronological order to untangle. This list is a starter path of ten from more than thirty features, leaving out shorts, documentaries and lesser seen Mexican studio work. Start with Un Chien Andalou with L Age d Or as a short double bill, then Viridiana or The Exterminating Angel. End with Discreet Charm and That Obscure Object of Desire as a late pair.
