Dery doesBuuel

BB contributor Mark Dery wrote a fascinating rumination on the Spanish surrealist Luis Buuel, best known for his 1929 short film collaboration with Salvador Dal, Un Chien Andalou. (Yes, the one with the infamous eyeball-slicing scene, above.) From Dery's essay at Thought Catalog, titled "Thank God Im An Atheist: Buuels Last Laugh":
Buuel is a philosopher a moral philosopher, to be exact, albeit one who makes his case with gleeful, Surrealist savagery, using images dredged from the depths of the unconscious.
