This is a truly ground-breaking movie. Surrealist geniuses Dali and Bunuel
combined their powers and produced this short collection of shocking scenes.
This is the film that first showed that art is not there only to please the
audience but also to annoy and depict our darkest thoughts and dreams. The
proof of its success is that nowadays the shock value is almost zero (except
the ultra-famous eye scene). What then seemed an outrageous and demoralizing
attempt is now common practice. I still think though that given their
talents, they could do an even better movie if they were more serious about
it, but one should not forget they were two young guys trying to revolt
against the establishment.
