Review of Un Chien Andalou (1929) by Sev O — 02 Sep 2007

This is absolutely revolutionary right?, seeing that the contemporary age of cinema we live in didn't start until after the 1980's. To understand and appreciate this film you have to understand this movie is from a perspective, that was Paris France, right on the edge of the Golden Age of Hollywood.

Which I just read about. They are suggesting a very passionate and very real picture of their life, Surrealists. Cinema isn't their art. But it is a tool. To see their life, they are talking about home, and growing up, becoming aware, to see things change.

If cinema started earlier I could suggest this would be one of the best films around. I wonder what other movies were like around then...
