Marco Ferreri: The Collection - The House Of Smiles (La Casa del sorriso) - Movie Download

Plot

Marco Ferreri's satirical and often surreal films embody a unique vision of humanity borne of exasperation and nihilism. Through these eight genre-bending black comedies, the controversial director crafted a fiercely contemporary cinematic language of his own, delving deep into the alienation of men, women and children. Includes the films: El Cochecito (1960), The Seed of Man (1969), La Grande Bouffe (1973), Don't Touch the White Woman (1974), Bye Bye Monkey (1978), Seeking Asylum (1979), Tales of Ordinary Madness (1981), The House of Smiles (1988).

The House Of Smiles - Ingrid Thulin stars as an elderly woman struggling to not only find love, but to also survive inside a repressive retirement home.
