Director: Luis Bunuel
Writers: Luis Bunuel, Joseph Kessel, Jean-Claude Carriere
Language: French
Belle de Jour in French translates to Daylight Beauty. Severine is a young frigid housewife who has masochistic fantasies which leads her to spending her midweek afternoons as a prostitute.
The film is great in the sense that it doesn't go for cliches towards the end even though the events leading up to it seems to be run of the mill. Its another film in which Bunuel does not seem to care about the morals upheld by the society.
Martin Scorsese promoted the DVD release of the film in 2002.
Rating: 4.5/5
