Marcel Camus
Black Orpheus
Winner of both the Academy Award for Best Foreign-Language Film and the Cannes Film Festival’s Palme d’Or, Marcel Camus’s BLACK ORPHEUS (ORFEU NEGRO) brings the ancient Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice to the twentieth-century madness of Carnival in Rio de Janeiro. With its eye-popping photography and ravishing, epochal soundtrack, BLACK ORPHEUS was an international cultural event, and it kicked off the bossa nova craze that set hi-fis across America spinning.
Starring Breno Mello, Marpessa Dawn, Lourdes de Oliveira, Léa Garcia, Adhemar Feirrera da Silva
