...Chien Andalou (1928), at the Old Cambridge Baptist Church, was the first film made by Luis Bunuel. A silent short partly planned by Salvador Dali, it was the first surrealist film and is probably the most powerful short film ever made. Bunuel's surrealism was abstract in the 20s, became a savage vehicle for social criticism in the 40s and 50s, and mellowed into a means for joking about the upper class in last year's Discreet Charm of the Bourgeousie. Un Chien Andalou was its first expression...
...best contemporary painters are Spanish: Joan Miró, Salvador Dali, the late Pablo Picasso and the late Juan Gris. Of these, the greatest is Dali. At least those are his opinions, delivered during a speech entitled "Velásquez and I" at the Prado. Madrid's al ta sociedad was on hand-but museum authorities were not-for the vernissage of the only contemporary painting in the famous gallery: Dali's portrait of a lady riding a horse as in a surrealist dream. His subject: Francó's granddaughter Carmencita, Princess Alfonso de Borb...

But at a nearby table Prince Rainier and Princess Grace of Monaco observed the boycott by lunching on salad...
...Bunuel has changed since he collaborated with Salvador Dali in 1929 to make the surrealistic film "Le Chien Andalou," whose release one stunned critic called "a date in the history of the cinema, a date marked with blood." His latest movie is kinder, less harrowing than past works. Though Bunuel is shrewdly anti-sentimental in stripping his bourgeoisle of its sanctuaries, it may even by permissible not to feel enraged by his six sturdy representatives of the middle class...
When Burroughs Corp. President Ray Macdonald recently spied a Dali lithograph of a bullfight hanging on an office wall, he jokingly ordered a secretary to paste the letters IBM over the head of the vanquished bull. For the normally straitlaced Macdonald, this was an unusual act. He may not be entitled to the matador's highest accolade, the ears, but he is fighting an impressive battle. Macdonald took charge of the Detroit computer maker half a dozen years ago, when it ranked a distant eighth to IBM. Today Burroughs is up to the No. 4 position in terms...
