Black Orpheus (1959) World Cinema Masterworks Series

24 April 2022 at 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm

Director Marcel Camus

Country: Brazil/France
Language: Portuguese with English Subtitles

Winner of both the Academy Award for best foreign-language film and the Cannes Film Festival’s Palme d’Or, Marcel Camus’ Black Orpheus 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.

Stay after the film for a Film Talk with Jeffrey Bender.
