L’éternel retour [Love Eternal] **** (1943, Jean Marais, Madeleine Sologne, Jean Murat) – Classic Movie Review 5830
Jean Delannoy directs this strangely forgotten and sadly neglected 1943 film adaptation of the Tristan and Iseult [Isolde] legend, set in a magnificent château in 1940s France. The film’s neglect is truly surprisingly since the screenplay […]

Le Testament d’Orphée [Testament of Orpheus] **** (1959, Jean Cocteau, Edouard Dermithe, Maria Casarès, François Périer, Henri Crémieux, Yul Brynner, Jean Marais, Claudine Auger) – Classic Movie Review 2985

Co-writer/director Bernardo Bertolucci’s gorgeous-looking but mostly rather obnoxious 1995 Italian-holiday drama has a pretty specious script that largely defeats an exceptionally talented, very special cast. Liv Tyler stars as a pubescent young American girl, 19-year-old Lucy […]
La Belle et la Bête [Beauty and the Beast] ***** (1946, Jean Marais, Josette Day, Mila Parély, Marcel André, Nane Germon, Michel Auclair) – Classic Movie Review 345
‘Children believe what we tell them. They have complete faith in us. They believe that a rose plucked from a garden can plunge a family into conflict. They believe that the hands of a human […]
Orphée [Orpheus] ***** (1949, Jean Marais, François Périer, María Casares, Marie Déa) – Classic Movie Review 117
The French poet Jean Cocteau realises the full magic of the cinema in this 1949 masterpiece of the French avant garde, one of the most exquisite fantasies in the movies. Set in present-day Paris, Orphée […]
