Peppermint Frappé

Although it is only a few steps from the X-ray machine to the altar in Julian's residence, technology and religion are incompatible. The single bachelor puts together his dream women from magazines. When he meets his best friend's new and much younger wife, who looks like his receptionist and awakens memories of a dream figure from his childhood, he remodels one obscure object of his desire into another ... Dedicated to Luis Buñuel, with obvious Hitchcock references and for the first time with muse Geraldine Chaplin in a double role, Saura definitively establishes his signature style in his fourth feature-length film: as a razor-sharp analyst of a Spanish bourgeoisie dominated by constraints and repressed desires.
