Antwerp describe the sounds for Un Chien Andalou as being ‘dreams as sounds of objects’ while La Jetée’s are stripped back effect to heighten the fear of the narrator’s situation. Both are very effective, especially Un Chien Andalou’s metallic, spiky noises that emphasize the small details in every scene: the sharpening of the razor blade, the ticking of a metronome, rapid heartbeats and breaking glass. La Jetée’s new score may be stripped back but this adds to the disorientation: the sound of bombs overhead, the impending fear and the loudening synthesizes replicating air raid sirens and the sense of impending urgency.
