Description
This is a region-free DVD+R without case or artwork.
In Spanish with English subtitles. Also known as
The Criminal Life of Archibaldo de la Cruz
and
Rehearsal for a Crime
.
This Mexican-filmed black comedy is one of the minor but no less characteristic works of director
Luis Buñuel
. The film begins with Archibaldo (Ernesto Alonso) being triggered by a music box into a lengthy reminiscence of his childhood: Archibaldo was caught dressing up in his mother's clothes by his governess, who was then instantly killed by a revolutionary's bullet before she could tell on him. The experience proved to be Archibaldo's "first rush," and he spends the rest of his life trying to re-create the sexual euphoria of that moment -- by murdering attractive women. Perverse but darkly funny,
Ensayo de un Crimen
is a slyly shocking delight.
