La Legende~Dali clip

Clip from Tom Austin's short film 'La Legende~Dali' (2009), with Jez Jameson as Salvador Dali and Kirk Moore as his brother.

SYNOPSIS:
La Legende~Dali is a surreal comedy docu-drama which looks at the life and work of Spanish painter and film-maker Salvador Dali. Set in a boxing gym, it tells in a theatrical way, how his odd family (including his dead brother) helped shape the young man into becoming arguably the twentieth centurys greatest painter.
With reverential references to his and Bunuels groundbreaking film Un Chien Andalou, and his collaboration with Hitchcock on Spellbound, its aim is to remind us how much Dali has influenced the way we look at this weird world we live in.

Premiered at the 2 Short Nights Film Festival, Exeter (Nov. 2009), where it won 2 awards: Best Bursary Film & Best Festival Film (Audience Award).
