Un Chien Andalou

  1. What might the images of the cloud slicing through the moon and the slicing of the woman’s eyeball signify about viewing/sight?
  2. What themes and images are repeated throughout?
  3. Like our dreams (which are a primary concern of Surrealists), there is a dislocation of time and space in this film. How is time dislocated? How is space?
  4. Can we appreciate the film as it is? Can we watch it with our eyes and emotions and not seek an explanation?
