| Description | The text focuses on the Orphée play of 1927, the film The Blood of a Poet from 1930, the Orphée film of 1950 and the film The Orpheus Testament of 1960. With regard to this free Orphic tetralogy, the archetypal images dreams are used more or less in each work. The author has mentioned several times that he was often inspired by the mechanism of the dream, by the spatiotemporal modifications and consequently by the changes of the sequence of the images, by metaphors and parables. Experiences, impressions and events related to death give birth to the stories by which Cocteau expresses his own poetic conception of the universe behind the mirror. |
