Avant Garde and Experimental Films Vol. I
1. UN CHIEN ANDULOU (1928-FRANCE)(An Andalusian Dog) by Luis Bu?uel and SALVADOR DALI. Perhaps the most famous avant garde film of all; the slit eyeball, the ants emerging from the human palm, the severed hand in the street. A series of visual shocks symbolizing nothing. Successful attempt at pure surrealism. With synchronized music score selected by Luis Bu?ue 2.REGEN (RAIN) by JORIS IVENS and MANNUS FRANKEN. (1929-Holland). A lyrical impression of a shower of rain in Amsterdam. Beautifully photographed.3.UBERFALL by ERNO METZNER (c. 1929-Germany). A grim account of a street robbery presenting sordid facts in an objective light. Once banned as “brutalizing and demoralizing” Silent film with music score, correct projection speed.4.THE HEARTS OF AGE (1934-USA). Directed by and starring ORSON WELLES. No plot, but the young Welles (age 19) is easily spotted as a nascent genius. The first footage ever shot by Welles (and way, way before Citizen Kane). Silent film with music score, correct projection speed.5.BALLET MECANIQUE (1924-France) by FERNAND LEGER. A delightful abstract film with a minimum of geometrical forms and a maximum of photographic images. Supposedly shows Freudian symbolism but regardless, a delight to behold visually. Your eye will shake your hand. Silent film with music score, correct projection speed.74 minutes total.

Customer Review: A fascinating insite into the life of Dali
This is the second volume of Dali’s autobiographical series. It spans the period from 1952 to 1963 and markedly shows his transition into surrealism, both in terms of the paintings he describes and also in his writing style. It is certainly more florid than The Secret Life of Salvador Dali. It is almost fanatically descriptive and allows the reader to really become involved in the daily routine and patterns that shaped his career and life. It is interesting also to read from his memoirs the development of his expressive impulse brought on by his wife Gala who we also get to know in this volume. In summary I would say that this book is invaluable for the Dali enthusiast and a great educational resource for all others. It also features a poignant and revelatory introductory essay by J G Ballard.
