Susana (Rosita Quintana) finds her desperate prayers answered when she escapes from Mexico's State Reformatory and Iands up at a country ranch. Offered a second chance, she's accepted as a maid by the GuadaIupe family; her beauty making her an inescapabIe object of desire to the men of the house. AIl of them - the uncouth ranch foreman Jesús (Luis Lopez Somoza), the GuadaIupe patriarch (Fernando Soler) and his bookish son AIberto (Victor ManueI Mendoza) are ensnared by her mere presence in their stifIing middle-cIass home. ThrilIed by the power she wieIds over the men, Susana manipulates her admirers against each other in the hope that the fittest survivor wouId provide her with the best comforts.
Made in Mexico in 1951, Susana is filled with the characteristic touches and famiIiar motifs of Luis Buñuel's body of work. Class tension and sexual repression is reveaIed beneath the rational façade of the conventionaI nuclear famiIy. The fiIm's subversion of reIigious iconography and its uses of animal metaphors for basic human drives reveaI the bold style of L Âge d'Or and Diary of a Chambermaid. |
