Un Chien Andalou

Spanish director Luis Buñuel's first film, this surrealistic masterpiece was written over the course of a three-day exchange of fantasies and dreams with Salvador Dalí and contains one of the most memorable scenes in film history--a razor blade slicing an eyeball.

  • ""'The light cloud passes now in front of the moon. The razor blade moves across the young woman's eye, cutting it open' - this antimontage begins the result of an uneasy collaboration between Salvador Dali, with his penchant for scandalous self-advertising, and Luis Buñuel, with his scandalizing sense of revolt. Following the film's first showings, Buñuel, for one, was exasperated by 'the imbecile crowd (that) found beautiful or poetic something that was basically a desperate, passionate call to murder.' Nevertheless, Un Chien Andalou remains the first deliberately unattractive film, indigestible despite much chewing over by critics looking for 'dream symbolism.' Jean Vigo writes that 'in this film we will have to view with something more than the everyday eye.'" --James Brook, Pacific Film Archive program guide, March 1982."
  • "Whatever may be puzzling about its imagery, it is a passionate testament, a protest against a hated society with which surrealism is at war. The action of the film is subconscious; its horror is the violent expression of revolt against the inhibitions and repressions forced on a rebellious spirit."

  • "While Bunuel and Dali's famous surrealist film, in their words, was conceived as an irrational series of gags and 'dream residues', it is constructed like a tragi-comic narrative, with recurring actor-characters and cinematic effects which are justified and demanded by the narrative. Rather than being interpreted in terms of the symbolic equivalents of dream, the film can be seen to focus on filmic processes of constructing then dismantling meaning through, for example, the lack of logical associations and spatial discontinuities in the process of disconcerting, disturbing and shocking the viewer."
