Un Chien Andalou Film Reaction
The Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee around a Pomegranate a Second Before Awakening by Salvador Dali was created through dream imagery. In this painting Dali was inspired by multiple sources. Like Hieronymus Bosch water creature spewing out other creatures. The two tigers from a Ringling Bros, and Barnum-Bailey, circus poster. The background elephant was from Bernini's elephant-monument that was actually an elephant that was executed, but was also Dali's symbol for of war and destruction. War is also put into this piece because of the gun. What also makes this painting dream like is the pomegranate bursting open into the creatures and the gravity defying woman on the sea.
The Film was actually so weird that I had nightmares about it. When i came into the room I just saw this guy chasing this woman around but he looked crazed and just wanted to touch and eventually kill her. Turning this video to be more religious I saw the signs of Jesus when he had a hole in his palms. The preachers he was pulling with the piano. Also I fell like the ending was a sign of afterlife maybe heaven for the woman. Personally disliked the film but he was talented in twisting reality.
