IMDb
(Hulu)
A middle aged doctor lusts after his young nurse assistant. When he goes to meet his brother for a weekend getaway, he introduces his new wife, a dead ringer for his nurse. The three of them explore a dilapidated country house where the two brothers spent their childhood, while the doctor falls madly in love with the girl. Geraldine Chaplin has a dual role as nurse and wife, one brunette and one blonde, one shy and one outgoing. The film, dedicated to Luis Bunuel, sort of comes off as Bunuel-light, lacking the biting satire that makes Bunuel's films so potent.
