BBC Four - Un Chien Andalou

Short, shocking, surrealist silent film from Luis Bunuel and Salvador Dali.

Short, silent, surrealistic film featuring a series of striking, irrational and unconnected images based on the dreams of the painter Salvador Dali and the director Luis Bunuel.

Luis Bunuel, who made his name with this short shocking film in 1929, is one of the great exponents of surrealism in the cinema. An Andalusian Dog, which Bunuel co-wrote with his friend Salvador Dali, includes some of the most searing and memorable images filmed.
