BBC reports on Dali exhibition at Tate Modern

Dali's heroes included Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton

An unfinished short Salvador Dali hoped to make with Walt Disney will form part of a Tate Modern exhibition about the Spanish artist's fascination with film.
Dali worked on Destino for more than nine months between 1945 and 1946, but money ran out before it was completed.

The six-minute film was eventually made in 2003 by Disney's nephew Roy and was nominated for an Academy Award.

The short will feature in Dali & Film, running at the Tate Modern gallery in London from 1 June to 9 September.
