Orpheus

The poet Cegeste (Edouard Dermit) gets grabbed by the cops, hit by a motorcycle, then collected by "The Princess" (Maria Casares), who commandeers the title character (Jean Marais), a bystander, in Jean Cocteau's Orpheus, 1950.

"The Princess" (Maria Casares) resurrects poet Cegeste (Edouard Dermit) and takes him through a mirror through which the hero (Jean Marais) cannot follow, as things get wild in Jean Cocteau's Orpheus, 1950.

Quickly establishing the post-war Left-bank milieu, popular poet (and title character) Jean Marais expresses disdain for the goings-on at the cafe, in Jean Cocteau's contemporary rendering of the Greek myth, Orpheus, 1950.
