Salvador Dalí’s 1929 film with Luis Buñuel featuring the famous eye-slitting scene was Un Chien Andalou.
Un Chien Andalou is a French-language silent short film made in 1929. Buñuel directed it, and Dalí co-wrote the screenplay. Its opening sequence, showing a cloud crossing the moon followed by a razor near a woman’s eye, became one of cinema’s most recognizable Surrealist images.
The film uses dreamlike editing rather than a conventional plot. Images and events are connected through shock, association, and abrupt transitions. The creators deliberately resisted a straightforward explanation, which helped distinguish the work from traditional narrative cinema.
The title is usually translated into English as The Andalusian Dog, but the French title is the canonical name most often used in film histories. Dalí and Buñuel later collaborated on L’Age d’Or, a longer 1930 film, although their relationship became strained before its completion.
