A Night of Surrealism

About the event

Embark on an ethereal journey as we present a captivating double feature of iconic surrealist films, both accompanied by mesmerizing live scores from The Flushing Remonstrance.

L’Age d’Or ✨ by Luis Buñuel (1937) immerses you in a whimsical turmoil of Freudian unease, infused with bizarre humor and unforgettable imagery. It has been described as “the most scandalous of all Buñuel’s films—surreal, dreamlike, and pornographically blasphemous.” – Pauline Kael

🌑 Next, witness The Fall of the House of Usher 🌑 (1928) directed by James Sibley Watson and Melville Webber, an avant-garde adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s haunting masterpiece. Critics rave about its “tilted, eerie beauty” where wisps of silhouette dance amidst hazy visuals, crafting a perfect nightmare from Poe’s tale. – Sally Jane Black
