Luis Bu??uel based A Woman without love on Guy de Maupassant's short marks of director's Mexican years during the 1950's when produced a series of brilliant, satirical masterpieces. An unhappily married woman indulges in a brief, torrid affair with an engineer, but then refuses to leave her elderly husband. Twenty five years later, the former lover leaves a fortune to her son, causing an uproar. Bu??uel undermines the soap opera plot by stripping the characters on any vestige of nobility, cruelly exposing their selfishness and bourgeois hypocrisy.
