Dali & Film

Saturday morning, rainy day. Haven’t been to the Tate Modern for a while but wanted to see this exhibition, so la poderosa took me to the museum. The whole thing is about Dali and Film, how this relationship influenced his works. Short films like Buñuel's Un chien andalou and L’age d’or and Walt Disney's Destino, as well as some of his most known masterpieces were in there, The Persistence of Memory, Autumn Cannibalism, Metamorphosis of Narcissus, Young Virgin Auto-Sodomized by the Horns of Her Own Chastity, Dream Caused by the Flight of a Bee around a Pomegranate a Second Before Awakening among many others. I didn’t miss any, read every single description and were quite into it as I used to love Dali. The paintings are a bit small but very colourful and although the explanations are in certain cases irrelevant, it is worth seeing it. I would recommend avoiding L’age d’or as it is too long and not really exciting.

Found Destino on YouTube.
