#66 - The Orphic Trilogy


So evidently, now the boxed set spines have a number and then the movies - So technically #66 is just the SPINE for this box set but my OCD won't have me skipping numbers - so I have an entry to talk about

Jean Cocteau was here before in film #6 - Beauty and the Beast - This series of three films are various takes on the story of Orpheus - (what now we'll have four in 68 films?) - The first and last films also bookend the film output of Jean, being his first and last film.  He was also a heck of a poet, writer, etc, but we're only doing films here, man - films...get with it

Not sure what I'm going to make of these but the first one is only 55 minutes so it should be doable

Most of this set is out of print - good ol' Netflix comes thru - even Filmstruck only has one of the three in it's library right now
