Does it *really* matter?

Guys, I apologize for not putting a disclaimer on the graphic nature of that clip... Will do that now.

Actually, a member of ours, who we have not seen in a long time, Brian Donofrio, has put up a website, with clips from movies where straight razor is used. Among them, there was this scene, and I remembered it, and searched youtube for it...

The scene is from the shor film named "Un chien andalou (An Andalusian Dog)", a sixteen-minute surrealist film made in France in 1929, by writer/director Luis Buñuel and Salvador DalÃ. It is one of the best-known surrealist films of the French avant-garde film movement of the 1920s.

The film opens with a scene in which a woman's eye is getting slit by straight razor. That is actually a close-up of a calf's eye that is slit by a razor, although one of the producers forced the story of a real eye being placed in the socked of an actress missing her left eye. If you watch closely (try that, if you have guts for it), you can see the hair on the calf's face around it...

you can find nice summary abot the film here:

Anyways, sorry for giving some of you bad sleep. This sequence still shocks and it is purported that Buñuel, although the originator of the idea and the images, was nauseated the first few times he viewed the scene. I found it very disturbing watching the clip too...
