Review of Black Orpheus (1959) by Matthew F. J — 31 Oct 2015
Wonderful adaptation and retelling of the Orpheus / Eurydice myth, transposed during the Carnival of Rio Do Janeiro in the late 50's. The film is filled with an impressive musical soundtrack, raw energy and overall feverish vibe leading of the famous carnival.
Definitely a great film of world cinema.
