Jean Cocteau ORPHEUS (1949) Jean Marais


Jean Cocteau ORPHEUS (1949) Jean Marais

Set in contemporary Paris, the movie is a variation of the classic Greek myth of Orpheus. At the Café des Poètes, a brawl is staged by acolytes of the Princess (Casares) and the young poet Cègeste (Edouard Dermithe), a rival of Orpheus, is killed. Cègeste's body is taken to the Princess's car by her associates, and Orpheus (Marais) is asked to accompany them as a witness. They drive to a chateau (the landscape through the car windows are presented in negative) acompanied by abstract poetry on the radio. This takes the form of seemingly meaningless messages, like those broadcast to the French Resistance from London during the Occupation.

Orpheus becomes obsessed with Death (the Princess). Heurtebise (Périer), her chauffeur, entertains analogous unrequited love for Orpheus's wife Eurydice (Marie Déa). They fall in love. Eurydice is killed by the Princess's henchmen and Orpheus goes after her into the Underworld. Although they have become dangerously entangled, the Princess sends Orpheus back out of the Underworld, to carry on his life with Eurydice, but he cannot look at her or she will die. (This diverges from the common classical account found in the Roman versions of the myth by Ovid and Virgil, where Eurydice is lost forever.) They believe it to have been a dream, Eurydice is revealed to be alive, and expecting a child.

Dawn Wells The Town That Dreaded Sundown (1977)

Town that Dreaded Sundown (1977) Dawn Wells, Ben Johnson, Andrew Prine [review by J Kerswell] A flawed, but occasionally fascinating dramatization of a series of real life murders that occurred in Texas in the 1940s. This proto-slasher is a sometimes uncomfortable mix of police procedural drama, comedy and creepy horror... No region DVD. DVD/CD sleeve, photo label. Guaranteed/replaced with same title.
