Overview

"Pour vos beaux yeux" (For Your Beautiful Eyes) is an eight-minute surrealist short by Henri Storck, conceived from an idea by Félix Labisse. In just 75 shots, it follows a young man who discovers a glass eye in a park, becomes consumed by its strange allure, and tries in vain to rid himself of it by mailing it away. Featuring Henry Van Vyve in the lead role, with cameo appearances by Labisse and his sister Ninette, the film stands as a playful yet unsettling exploration of obsession and absurdity—released only a year after "Un Chien Andalou."
