Do what now?


An Andalusian Dog (1929)

Directed by Luis Bunuel this film stars Simone Mareuil and Pierre Batcheff. A bunch of weird stuff happens including, famously, an eye being cut by a razor blade.

I have watched this film twice now and to be honest whatever meaning might be behind the film escapes me. As a collection of bizarre images it's certainly hard to watch and no doubt has an effect on the viewer. Even to modern eyes the most famous part of this film is a challenging watch.

3/5
