The philosophical basis of Surrealism is the intuitionism of the French subjective idealist philosopher Bergson and the "subconscious" theory of the Austrian psychopathologist Freud.
Since "An Andalu Dog" mainly shows the subconsciousness of dreams and the thirst for sex and death, and this is Freud's theory, we might as well look at this one-sidedly from Freud's psychoanalysis. piece. (Different audiences understand differently, movies like literature, there is no standard answer)
First of all, the man sharpened his knife and then used the knife to cut the woman's eyeballs. Women now represent sexual conservatives, and men's behavior is to resist subconsciously.
Men riding bicycles in baby clothes represent the unconscious period of infancy, and the death of a man means that they have passed the infancy. Using men to represent babies is because there is still the pursuit of sex at this stage. Freud believes that the pursuit of sex is the subconsciousness of any person and any stage of life (in fact, the pursuit of personal pleasure).
The baby clothes on the woman's bed indicate that a woman has a natural motherhood for a man in the infant stage, but a man has a desire for a woman. Freud said: Every male subconsciously has a complex of "killing his father and marrying his mother".
The ant in the hand is desire and sexual suggestion. A man enters the stage of sexual enlightenment, while a woman’s armpit hair turns into a sea urchin, which is a rejection of man’s sexual behavior.

The police are now the representatives of law and public morals, and women are forced to become oppressive people.
The woman holding the box was hit to death, her desire broke free, and her sexual desire was released. The role of women changes, men show their desires naked to women, women’s avoidance and refusal of sex.
The man chased the woman and pulled up the rope from the ground. The piano was dragged out from behind the rope. The heads of cattle and sheep were placed on the piano, and two monks fell under the rope. The piano expresses the artistic quality, and the head of cattle and sheep is used for sacrificial ceremonies-expressing the sacredness (for example, in "Red Sorghum", the grandfather cleared out a round land-symbolizing the altar, Jiuer lying down, the background music of the sexual behavior of the two is ordinary The sacrificial horn), the two monks represent the bondage of morality and ethics.

It is difficult to understand a movie purely visually. The best way to interpret a movie is to first understand the background of the movie, and then understand the director/producer/screenwriter’s life experience and movie thoughts in stages, as well as watching similar movies. Or other movies made by the same director/producer/screenwriter. In this way, only a preliminary interpretation of a movie can be made.
Of course, people's comments on the movie itself are the second creation of the movie.
