    In terms of plot structure, it is really much better than the blood of the poet. Make up a new story from a mythical story. Reaper looks too good-looking. The last thing Reaper and his assistants did for their lover was too good. Poems from the car radio, the uninformed masses, poets and...

    In fact, we are all dead, but we are all aware of it. Is the difference between life and death love and desire? Perhaps there is no difference on this page, it just seems to be the mirror of Cocteau's...

    The tug of life on both sides of the mirror is wonderful. The wind can't penetrate the ecran wall in front of the messenger on Huangquan Road. The hawker who sells the mirror can walk around at will, but the pair of orphee and eurydice are like a mother and son disguised as a husband and wife. It makes me play / si vous revez acceptez le reve, cest le role de dormeur//Inverted shot - red room with two peaks/The poet's image adjective library is really rich//melville plays a hotel lobby...

    Regarding the adaptation of Greek mythology and the film of object symbolism, psychoanalysis can also be inserted, double feminine is too obvious ~ and the poet is a writer who does not write. The trials and the group attack on one person are all products of the post-war period. The impact of World War II on European films is far beyond the imagination of many...

    The most passionate and the highest

    Huang Ailing said in "The Eyes of the Beast" that "Beauty and the Beast" is simply Gauk's version of "The Peony Pavilion." This reminds me that when I look at Gao Keduo's works with the eyes of watching Chinese operas, it seems that I can be more straightforward, and I can appreciate the...

Orpheus quotes

  • Orphée: What does marble think when it's being sculpted? It thinks, "I am struck, insulted, ruined, lost." Life is sculpting me. Let it finish its work.

  • [first lines]

    Narrator: The legend of Orpheus is well-known. In Greek mythology, Orpheus was a troubadour from Thrace. He charmed even the animals. His songs diverted his attention from his wife Eurydice. Death took her away from him. He descended to the netherworld and used his charm to win permission to return with Eurydice to the world of the living on the condition that he never look at her. But he looked at her and was torn to pieces by the Bacchantes. Where does our story take place and when? A legend is entitled to be beyond time and place. Interpret as you wish.
