    To do this film justice, one must beat a review on the alphanumerics with one's head until bloody, and then-

    Saw it when I was little and was totally repulsed by it, but now I just love it's complete wackyness. Dali is one of my favourite artist, and he really proves that his totall madness can be transfered to film as well as paintings.

    I give it four out of five fist full of ants.

    Surreal silent short remains one of the most influential works in the history of cinema. The "eye sequence" is still shocking today.

    Really well directed, but that eye thing is totally gross and there's not really depth to it, because it's a short film based on expression.

    Bunuel and Dali's surrealist mindfuck is a wonderful gem of the avant garde... a bizarre and disturbing work from 1929, before the two artist's partnership went south. It's a little too short to warrant some sort of dramatic write up. It is to be taken as it is; a prime example of French surrealist cinema during its heyday, created as an artistic statement, largely to surprise, shock, and sicken the typical art crowd of the time. The film is diegetically bizarre, follows no constant of time or place, and treats its own plot as a tinker toy, but its wonderfully strange and beautiful in its oddities. Sixteen minutes of pure mindfuck glory.
