CGiii Comment

Dodgy moustaches, beautiful music.

Peculiar accents, pristine photography.

These dichotomies could continue but this is an independent film of great quality.

Ignore the flaws and watch a truly fascinating story unfold - it will be either love or hate - but it certainly looks beautiful.

Perhaps a little more passion would have convinced the critics a little bit more.

The(ir) Blurb...

In 1922, Madrid is wavering on the edge of change as traditional values are challenged by the dangerous new influences of Jazz, Freud and the avant-garde. Salvador Dali arrives at the university; 18 years old and determined to become a great artist. His bizarre blend of shyness and rampant exhibitionism attracts the attention of two of the university's social elite - Federico Garcia Lorca and Luis Bunel. Salvador is absorbed into their youthfully decadent group and for a time Salvador, Luis and Federico become a formidable trio, the most ultra-modern group in Madrid. However as time passes, Salvador feels and increasingly strong pull towards the charismatic Federico - who is himself oblivious of the attentions he is getting from his beautiful writer friend, Magdalena. In the face of his friends' preoccupations - and Federico's growing renown as a poet - Luis sets off for Paris in search of his own artistic success.
