The Real Tuesday Weld perform a live original alternative score to the Hans Richter surrealist classic" Dreams That Money Can Buy". The band has previously performed this soundtrack live to accompany screenings of the film at the NFT in April 2005 and at Tate Modern in May 2006 and various International Film festivals as a Realityfilm production.
Berlin-born Hans Richter - Dadaist, painter, film theorist and filmmaker - was for four decades one of the most influential members of the cinematic avant-garde. Richter assembled some of the century's liveliest artists as co-creators of Dreams That Money Can Buy, his most ambitious attempt to bring the work of the European avant-garde to a wider cinema audience. Among its admirers is film director David Lynch.
Joe, a young man down on his luck, discovers he has the power to create dreams, and sets up a business selling them to others. The 'dreams' he gives to his clients are the creations of Max Ernst, Fernand L?r, Man Ray, Marcel Duchamp, Alexander Calder and Richter himself, and the result is by turns playful, hypnotic, satirical, charming and nightmarish. Dreams That Money Can Buy is a film in seven segments namely:
- Desire Director, Writer - Max Ernst
- The Girl with the Prefabricated Heart Director, Writer - Fernand Lr
- Ruth, Roses and Revolvers Director, Writer - Man Ray
- Discs Director, Writer - Marcel Duchamp
- Ballet Director, Writer - Alexander Calder
- Circus Director, Writer - Alexander Calder
- Narcissus Director, Writer - Hans Richter
