Textul de pe ultima copertă
Luis
Bunuel
(1900-83)
was
one
of
the
world's
great
film-makers.
Always
controversial,
his
first
film,
Un
Chien
andalou
(1928),
which
he
referred
to
as
a
'call
to
murder',
was
a
savage
Surrealist
experiment.
L'Age
d'or
(1930),
his
second,
was
banned
in
Paris
after
its
initial
screening,
which
had
led
to
violent
disturbances.
Thereafter,
his
films
continued
to
challenge,
provoke
and
subvert
social
conventions
in
their
searching
analyses
of
human
desire.
Luis
Bunuel:
New
Readings
ranges
widely
over
key
films
and
moments
from
all
stages
of
the
director's
career:
the
early
years
in
Spain
and
France,
the
middle
period
in
Mexico
and
the
USA,
and
the
return
to
Europe,
where
he
made
late
masterpieces
like
Belle
de
Jour
(1966)
and
Le
Charme
discret
de
la
bourgeoisie
(1972).
Twenty
years
after
his
death,
the
time
is
ripe
for
a
re-evaluation
of
Bunuel's
legacy.
Through
theoretically
informed
discussions
of
individual
films
and
dominant
tendencies,
as
well
as
through
more
biographically
orientated
perspectives
(including
newly
discovered
correspondence),
this
book
locates
and
re-appraises
Bunuel's
films
with
particular
emphasis
on
the
national
cinemas
and
varied
cultures
with
which
he
was
identified.
These
new
readings
show
that
Bunuel's
significance
and
impact
remain
undiminished
by
the
passage
of
time.
