NEW EDITION INCLUDED IN DVD BOXE SET
The star-crossed collaboration of Antonin Artaud (screenplay) and Germaine DULAC (direction) on The Seashell and the Clergyman {La Coquille et le clergyman} (1929) sparked a debate that continues with arguably more vigor today. The tension between the creative inputs of screenwriter and director, set in the Surrealist moment, has long been disputed because "...our vision of it continues to evolve with each passing generation, and because new elements have appeared." In these three essays, "The Surrealist Scandal: its Impact, its Facets, its Sudden Emergence, its Legend" , "The Genesis of the Film and the Reconstruction of the Facts", and "Analysis of the Dispute", presented in both french and in english, the authors examine the timliness of the Artaud/Dulac conflict and why it has become "emblematic."
