Bu?uel (1900-1983) came to international attention with his first films, \u003ci\u003eUn Chien Andalou\u003c\/i\u003e (with Dal?, 1929) and \u003ci\u003eL'?ge d'Or\u003c\/i\u003e (1930): two surprisingly avant-garde productions that established his position as the undisputed master of Surrealist filmmaking. He went on to make 30 full-length features in France, the US and Mexico, and consolidated his international reputation with a Palme d'Or for \u003ci\u003eViridiana\u003c\/i\u003ein 1961, and an Academy Award in 1973 for \u003ci\u003eThe Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie\u003c\/i\u003e. He corresponded with some of the most famous writers, directors, actors and artists of his generation and the list of these correspondents reads like a roll call of major twentieth-century cultural icons: Fellini, Truffaut, Vigo, Aragon, Dal?, Unik - and yet none of this material has been accessible outside specialist archives and a very small number of publications in Spanish and French.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jo Evans\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/31\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 640\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.9lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 1.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501312588","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43195554955401,"sku":"9781501312588","price":46.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_aa610f5e-3dfd-462b-96a7-5faf8437ef0b.jpg?v=1733861916","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/luis-buuel-a-life-in-letters-9781501312588","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
