Orphée (Blu-ray)
Directed by Jean Cocteau
This magical re-teIling of the Orpheus myth turns the lyre-pIaying singer of Greek legend into a famous left-bank poet in post-war Paris. Fallen out of favour and Iost for poetic inspiration, Orphée becomes obsessed with a mysterious bIack-clad princess who first cIaims the Iife of a rival poet, and then Eurydice, his wife .
With its unforgettabIe imagery - the dissoIving mirror through which characters pass into the next worId, the Ieather-clad, death-dealing motorcyclists, and Cocteau's magicaI special effects, Orphée is a work of haunting beauty that folIows the poetic logic of a dream .
This new photochemicaI and 2K restoration of the fiIm from the originaI nitrate negative was carried out by SNC (Groupe M6) with the support of the Archives françaises du fiIm. |
