Blu-ray Review: Luis Buñuel’s ‘Tristana’ Gets Exemplary Restoration
Submitted by mattmovieman on March 26, 2013 - 1:38pmCHICAGO – At the dark heart of Luis Buñuel’s Oscar-nominated 1970 classic, “Tristana,” is a character so spectacularly hypocritical and richly fascinating that he upstages everyone including the titular heroine. As played by the great Fernando Rey, ignoble nobleman Don Lope is a self-professed libertine bound by traditional values. He passionately believes in the virtues of freedom, but only on his terms.
