When I watched the short surrealist film Un Chien Andalou I was constantly surprised at how much I recognized. Pretty much every image in the film is recognizable in many other films. It’s the definitive surrealist film and it’s a haunting vision that has helped to expand the possibilities of cinema. The most fascinating connection for me is how much of the film is referenced in Jonathan Glazer’s Birth as Jim Emerson explains in Birth of a Brunuelian Notion . Un Chien Andalou is important, entertaining and endlessly fascinating.

I wasn’t expecting such a violent and graphic scene from a movie made in 1929. The violence in the beginning catches your attention, but the rest of the film doesn’t answer why it occurred. The film is creative for sure, but I honestly don’t understand what it means. Just a dream sequence? Murderous desire? Freudian conflict?
