Director Luis Buñuel and Master Artist Salvador Dali's Landmark 1928 Film. The film consists of striking and irrational images designed to shock and provoke. The images in Un Chien horrify even today. During the course of the film, we witness a close-up of a woman's eye being slashed open with a razor; a man dragging a piano, two bishops, and a pair of rotting asses across a room; ants swarming around a hole in a man's palm; and sundry severed limbs and gratuitous slayings. Though this was originally a silent film, Buñuel later added a recorded score consisting of Liebestod from Wagner's opera Tristan und Isolde and a number of popular tangos of the time. This is one of the most important films in Cinema's History.
