Marco Ferreri - La Grande Bouffe - 1973

Having organised a lavish gastronomic seminar right under everyone's noses, grizzled friends and members of the professional bourgeoisie--chef Ugo, a restaurant owner; international libertine Marcello, an Alitalia pilot; refined Michel, a successful television producer; and sheltered Philippe, a venerable magistrate--gather for a weekend of debaucherous fun at a Parisian villa. Soon, truckloads of the finest meat and wine arrive, and the four companions prepare for a wild Romanesque banquet. However, something is missing. As three elegant prostitutes join the eclectic quartet of hungry epicures, voracious appetite and uninhibited desire set the stage for a magnificent Bacchanalian feast. After all, the extravagant hedonists are bent on carrying out their morbid secret plan to the letter, and nothing can stop them. But how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
