Una mujer sin amor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A scene from the film
Una mujer sin amor is a 1951 film of the cinema of Mexico directed by Spanish-born filmmaker Luis Buñuel. It is based on Guy de Maupassant's story "Pierre et Jean."
Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.
The film tells the story of a love affair between a married woman and an engineer, which ends when the woman refuses to run away with her lover. Many years later, the engineer dies in Brazil, and leaves a great inheritance to the woman's younger son, who is likely his own son instead of the woman's husband, having been born shortly after his departure to Brazil. This occurrence creates an uproar. The film, like much of Buñuel's work, criticizes bourgeois values, especially those of the woman's husband, who is highly superficial.
