Curiosidades

Violons d'Ingres, released in English-speaking markets as Hobbies Across the Sea and as Creation and Recreation, is a 1939 French short surrealist documentary film directed by Jacques B. Brunius, in collaboration with Georges Labrousse.

Production

Jacques B. Brunius, a French artist active in the Surrealist movement, did much work in the French film industry in the 1930s. In addition to acting onscreen, he assistant-directed feature films, directed short advertisements, wrote film reviews, and made seven documentary films, the last of which was Violons d'Ingres.

The sequence featuring Georges Méliès was directed by Méliès in 1933, as an advertising film for the Régie des Tabacs of France, commissioned by Brunius and Jean Aurenche. The 28-second sequence, a trick film featuring two uses of the substitution splice technique Méliès had made famous, is notable as his final completed work as a film director.
