...Brattle, and might alone be worth the price. Both are art-house standards, and worthily so. Luis Bunuel's first film, Un Chien Andalou (a 1928 collaboration with artist-entrepreneur Salvador Dali), will either fascinate or frustrate with its free-association stream of symbols. (If you get completely lost in these fifteen unusual minutes, just remember violence symbolizes sex, the dead mules on the piano symbolize sex, and ants symbolize masturbation.) Exploited sometimes as Bunuel's creation or more accurately as Dali's, Chien Andalou exhibits the most youthful characteristics in both. Dali's frantic desire to shock the bourgeoisie...

...people are so solidly realized that the conventions of the crime thriller-careening cars, daring acrobatics, the inexorable dragnet-are all but incidental. The film's most heart-stopping sequence, in fact, is the hero's climb to the roof of the orphanage to retrieve a lost ball. This is only one of the many small human truths that Director Charles Crichton (The Lavender Hill Mob) presents to delight and surprise the eye. A phalanx of nannies march through Hyde Park as though each tree and blade of grass belonged to them. The faces of children playing...
