The Blood of a Poet - Le sang d'un poète (1930)

Jean Cocteau’s “the Blood of a Poet” is a very strange film. Even by todays standards, but I can’t imagine the response in 1930. The film was funded by the same producer of Bunuel/Dali’s “L Age D Or”(1930). Cocteau considered the film expressionism even though it feels like surrealism. His goal was to film a poem. In the beginning of the film we witness a chimney collapse. Then we are introduced to an artist. He is doing a sketch and erases the mouth. The mouth appears on his hand and starts to talk. Then when his hand touches the statue, it comes to life. He enters the mirror and it takes him to a strange hotel, behind each door is something bizarre happening. One room a boy is trying to fly, another room there’s a strange man with a spiral. Then the artist goes crazy and shoots himself.
