Description
Amos Vogel and Film as a Subversive Art Remembered: L’Age d’Or (The Age of Gold)By Luis Buñuel
Thu, Sep 6, 7:30pm & Sun, Sep 9, 2pm
Amos Vogel, who died at age 91 in April, is best remembered by some for his seminal book Film as a Subversive Art. This amazing text illustrated the power of cinema to challenge aesthetic, political, sexual, and ideological ideas. In tribute, we present Luis Buñuel’s L’Age d’Or, co-written by Salvador Dali. About the film, Vogel wrote: “In accord with surrealist ideology, only love—wild, anarchic, irrational love—is acceptable. Everything else is subverted.” Preceded by the Laurel and Hardy short Big Business.
