Video games, YouTube channels, Blu-ray discs, and other forms of new media have made theatrical cinema seem old. A sense of cinema lost has accompanied the ascent of digital media, and many worry films special capacity to record the real is either disappearing or being fundamentally changed by new medias different technologies. The Surrealist movement offers an ideal platform for resolving these tensions, undermining the claims of cinemas crisis of realism and offering an alternative interpretation of films aesthetics and function. The Surrealists never treated cinema as a realist medium and understood our perceptions of the real itself to be a mirage. Reading the writing, films, and art of Luis Buñuel, Salvador Dalí, Man Ray, André Breton, André Bazin, Roland Barthes, Georges Bataille, Roger Caillois, and Joseph Cornell, and tracing their influence in the films of David Cronenberg, Nakata Hideo, and Atom Egoyan
