That Obscure Object of Desire - Film Review

Submitted by: Gerald

Dear Altairboy.

This is for the film section, one of my favourite films by Luis Bunuel. "That Obscure Object of Desire" 1977 rated 15. In French, with English subtitles.

TV write up - "Where Conchita exercises a form of sexual terrorism that mesmerises her victim"

The plot - Old Professor Pieral is fascinated by Conchita, a house maid, and tries to woo her. Conchita milks him for everything, yet refuses sex, He forces her one night into bed, and, groping under the blankets is surprised to find her not completly naked !

She is fastened into a pair of high waisted pants, tied at every seam with ribbons. He is infuriated, and struggles desperately to untie the garment. But the number of knots and her constant resistance foil his attempts.

Later, she gets him to buy a house for her. He turns up, to find himself locked out by an iron gate. Conchita appears behind the gate, tells him he disgusts her, and makes love to a young stud in front of him.

To me, this is the definitive film on sexual denial, and laid the seed for my later chastity belt fantasies.

Please see it if you can.

Regards, Gerald
