Vintage #2 “The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie” Movie Poster 

A striking, surrealist vintage‑style movie poster for Luis Buñuel’s “The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie” (1972)—a landmark of satirical cinema and one of the director’s most celebrated works. This decorative reprint captures the film’s absurdist tone and its sharp critique of social rituals, wrapped in bold, unforgettable imagery.

Description

The poster features the film’s iconic surreal illustration: a pair of elegant legs in stockings and heels, topped with a bowler hat and oversized pink lips—an image that perfectly encapsulates Buñuel’s playful, dreamlike approach to bourgeois satire. Surrounding the artwork are glowing critical accolades from major publications, declaring the film one of the year’s best. The layout emphasizes its prestige, including its Academy Award nomination for Best Foreign Language Film (1973), making this piece especially appealing to collectors of arthouse and international cinema.
