La légende d'Orphée
"Shot in 1952, this is an "amateur film" done in 16mm, a sort of
home movie in which Cocteau takes the viewer on a tour of a friend's villa on
the French coast (a major location used in Testament of Orpheus). The house
itself is heavily decorated, mostly by Cocteau (and a bit by Picasso), and we
are given an extensive tour of the artwork. Cocteau also shows us several dozen
paintings as well. Most cover mythological themes, of course. He also proudly
shows paintings by Edouard Dermithe and Jean Marais and plays around his own
home in Villefranche. This informal little project once again shows the joy
Cocteau takes in creating art, in addition to showing a side of his work (his
paintings and drawings) that his films often overshadow." Directed by Jean
Cocteau, 1952. It's available at Ubuweb. 36 min
Testament
of Orpheus In this, the third part of the trilogy, Jean Cocteau
stars and also directs. In Greek legend, Orpheus is the poet who almost rescues
his wife Eurydice from Hades by charming Pluto and Persephone with his lyre.
Jean Cocteau takes on the role of poet/charmer in this insightful look into the
world of the French artists. Pablo Picasso and his wife make a rare cameo
appearance. ++++ DVD FEATURES: This officially licensed release from South Korea
is 4:3 Full Screen display in Black & White, with Dolby Digital Sound in the
ORIGINAL FRENCH language with optional (removable) English or Korean subtitles.
