Bunuel's underrated gem shines

Bunuel's romance/political-thriller is kind of a hoot. A review on IMDB said he is no Alan J. Pakula, and that is true. However, Bunuel's finesse allowed this movie to work and to have multiple layers. Sadly underrated, I would recommend this film to all students of cinema, especially those that appreciate Bunuel's dramas, along with his more sophisticated surrealism work.
