SALVADOR DALI – ENTHRALLING MASTERPIECE
Salvador Dali was handsome as a young man in school. He become a famous artist and world re-known later in life and his looks also became rather bizarre looking. He dressed in outrageous costumes throughout his like and most would assume that he was Gay. But then he claimed that he was not Gay.
Dali said in an interview with French surrealist poet Alain Bosquet. “He tried to screw me twice (Frederico Garcia Lorca). I was extremely annoyed, because I wasn’t homosexual, and I wasn’t interested in giving in. Besides, it hurts. So nothing came of it.”
That was then – but later in his life he did admit to a relationship between himself and the Famous Lorca, who was murdered in Spain. The movie follows their lives. Lorca has sex with women, but is drawn to Dali. He can’t seem to stay away from him. Dali gets married – but the reason is not clear. We never see him bedding with his wife. She, on the other hand, was very interested in getting Lorca in to bed in front of Dali. That apparently was where Dali got his thrill. He liked to watch – not do it.
There is a scene in the movie where Lorca, the poet is having sex with his Lady Friend at the time. On the floor, in the corner of the room Dali is masturbating.
One biographer says that Dali “was terrified of being touched by anyone.” However, in the movie there is definitely more than touching going on. There was kissing and sexual touching and more.
This story is very dramatic. It is a tale of love and betrayal, and a tale of complexities of young love, sexual identity and love lost. Boy’s will be Boy’s – even in Macho Spain. Dali, of course went on to become a huge name around the world. He did everything, painting designing, Theater and movies and his looks became even more bizarre.
The period that the movie takes place is during Franco’s reign in Spain. And it magnificently captured that on the screen. The filming and locations are one of the most beautiful things you are likely to see on film. There is powerful acting all around by the actors. Everyone is mesmerizing. Robert Pattinson (Dali) is addictive and brilliant.
Javier Beltran plays the poet (Frederico Garcia Lorca) and is remarkable, Mathew McNulty as Luis Bunuel plays a man who was probably Gay, but beat up on Gays to hide it. His performance is superb.
Dali -- Fool, buffoon, extraordinary talent…you make the decision when you see the movie. All of us will probably come out with different viewpoints. But no matter what – this is a salute to love’s possibilities. And, as you will see – there are many.
