The narrative technique and artistic style of later film development. (1) Anti-traditional Hybrid Narrative Technique In the film narrative technique of "An Andalusian Dog", director Buñuel broke with the traditional linear classical narrative technique and adopted a hybrid and fragmented narrative technique. The narrative style conveys to the audience an absurd and bizarre ideographic character through a dreamy, fragmented and unique film narrative vision, which Buñuel adopted in the 1920s when the classical Hollywood narrative art was maturing and flourishing. A film narrative method with a sense of "rebellion", as a kind of betrayal and abandonment of the classic Hollywood era, the director pinned his hopes on "An Andalusian Dog", hoping that through this film, the visual meaning of the film can be emphasized and reshaped. The artistic features of the film, which have been diluted by the Western classic Hollywood narrative mode, break the audience's long-term visual perception and psychology from the aesthetic and poetic narrative perspective of the film, and reversely bring the audience into another artistic dream of visual impact.

Desires and pursuits are a catharsis and appeal of the "self", and the police inspector, as a defender of civilized rules and moral human relations, ordered the woman to put the severed hand back in the box, which represents the A social meaning of "superego", a woman puts her severed hand back into the box, which can be understood as a transition of a woman from "id" to "superego", and finally achieves the balance of "ego", and this balance It also conforms to the existing psychological activities of most people, and has universal significance and typical characteristics. As a classic surrealist film with epoch-making significance, "An Andalou" is dissected and dismembered through a series of emotional appeals that directly hit the heart of human beings, such as sex and desire, and finally brings the audience into a crazy, bizarre, absurd and indifferent In the dream of logic.
