Catherine Deneuve’s porcelain perfection hides a cracked interior in one of the actress’s most iconic roles: Séverine, a Paris housewife who begins secretly spending her afternoons working in a bordello. This surreal and erotic daydream from provocateur for the ages Luis Buñuel is an examination of desire and fetishism, as well.
