Surrealism has long been recognised as having made a major
contribution to film theory and practice, and many contemporary
film-makers acknowledge its influence. Most of the critical
literature, however, focuses either on the 1920s or the work of
Buuel. The aim of this book is to open up a broader picture of
surrealism's contribution to the conceptualisation and making of
film. Tracing the work of Luis Buuel, Jacques Prvert, Nelly Kaplan,
Walerian Borowcyzk, Jan vankmajer, Raul Ruiz and Alejandro
Jodorowsky, Surrealism and Cinema charts the history of surrealist
film-making in both Europe and Hollywood from the 1920s to the
present day. At once a critical introduction and a provocative
re-evaluation, Surrealism and Cinema is essential reading for
anyone interested in surrealist ideas and art and the history of
film.
