Superb,
By Theseus "theseus" (US of A) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dali & Film (Hardcover)
From MOMA, this is a handsome and comprehensive book about Dali and his relationship with film.
This book illuminates Dali's film projects, moments in cinema inspired by Dali, and his theoretical and practical relationship with film in general. Thus it provides coverage on high spots such as Un Chien Andalou, Spellbound, and Father of the Bride, on fascinating/imperfect collaborations such as the history of Dali + Disney, and even on projects that were never completed such as Giraffe on Horseback Salad and Fifty Secrets of Magic Craftsmanship. The critical high point of the book are two short essays: Gale's "In Darkened Rooms" and King's "Crazy Movies That Disappear." The many images from Dali's paintings and graphic works are compelling and well-placed. As one might expect, this is a heavily illustrated volume with many fine color and b&w images. Book nitty-gritty: hardback, cloth over boards with a sewn binding in dustjacket; on heavy stock. 237 pp, 3.75 pounds. With a Chronology, excerpt's from Dali's writing, Filmography, Catalogue, Index. |
