Luis Buñuel : the red years, 1929-1939: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Luis Buñuel : the red years, 1929-1939" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

The turbulent years of the 1930s were of profound importance in the life of Spanish film director Luis Buuel (19001983). He joined the Surrealist movement in 1929 but by 1932 had renounced it and embraced Communism. During the Spanish Civil War (193639), he played an integral role in disseminating film propaganda in Paris for the Spanish Republican cause.
Luis Buuel: The Red Years, 19291939 investigates Buuels commitment to making the politicized documentary Land without Bread (1933) and his key role as an executive producer at Filmfono in Madrid, where he was responsible in 193536 for making four commercial features that prefigure his work in Mexico after 1946. As for the republics of France and Spain between which Buuel shuttled during the 1930s, these became equally embattled as left and right totalitarianisms fought to wrest political power away from a debilitated capitalism.
Where it exists, the literature on this crucial decade of the film directors life is scant and relies on Buuels own self-interested accounts of that complex period. Romn Gubern and Paul Hammond have undertaken extensive archival research in Europe and the United States and evaluated Buuels accounts and those of historians and film writers to achieve a portrait of Buuels Red Years that abounds in new information.
