The Phantom of Liberty is a 1974 French comedy drama film on DVD, directed by Luis Buñuel.
Acclaimed Spanish filmmaker Luis Buñuel's (Belle de Jour) surrealist gem The Phantom of Liberty (Le Fantome de la Liberte) features everything you could possibly imagine in an absurdist comedy – from an elegant dinner gathering where guests are comfortably seated at toilet bowls, a poker game where monks bet religious medals as chips, to a scenario where police officers look for a missing girl who is right under their noses. This often perverse and unusual comedy combines many of the most outrageous themes that Buñuel juggled throughout his illustrious career – rich with striking imagery, passing both subtle and not so subtle comment on issues of the times, including conventional morality and social structure.
