Review of Black Orpheus (1959) by Ben W — 26 Nov 2007
Dont shoot me. I didnt much like it. the colors could be pretty, but it seemed like it was trying to sell itself based entirely on the novelty of the exotic location and customs. and thereupon imposing the eurydice/orpheus classic story.
I dont know...there just seemed to be several problems with the whole concept. not to say there werent good things about it (some of the music etc) but it never really took off.
