René Clair and Francis Picabia ENTR’ACTE (1924, 22 minutes, 35mm)A masterpiece of Dada and a feat of cinema magic. Made as intermission entertainment for the Ballet Suédois from an impromptu scene by Francis Picabia.Luis Buñuel and Salvador Dalí UN CHIEN ANDALOU (1928, 22 minutes, 35mm)Twenty-two minutes of pure, scandalous dream-imagery, a stream of images from which anything that could be given a rational meaning was rigorously excluded. It’s still the unsurpassed masterpiece of the surrealist cinema.Luis Buñuel LAND WITHOUT BREAD / LAS HURDES: TIERRA SIN PAN (1932, 28 minutes, 35mm. With English narration.)“A documentary describing, matter-of-factly, a region of Spain so ravaged by epidemic poverty that there our worst fantasies find their objective correlative.” –Raymond DurgnatTotal running time: ca. 75 minutes.–Sunday, November 22 at 5:30.
