Return to Reason

One film that I find strangely enchanting is Man Ray's experimental film "La Retour a la Raison" (Return to Reason). Film was still relatively new at the time that it was made and Man Ray would have created it for his own learning and enjoyment, to experiment with how different materials could be shown and transcribe into moving image. I really like Man Ray's photographs and this film follows in his surreal style. The first time I saw it I didn't think much of it, but the more I watch it, the more mesmerising I find it.
