Monday Night Movies “Orpheus” (1950)

Step into a dreamlike world where poetry, love, and death blur into one in Orpheus (1950), directed by visionary filmmaker Jean Cocteau. This surreal retelling of the ancient myth of Orpheus follows a celebrated poet who becomes obsessed with mysterious messages from beyond the mirror—and with Death herself.

Blending avant-garde visuals with philosophical depth, Cocteau transforms mid-century Paris into a haunting, symbolic landscape where mirrors become portals, and reality feels fragile. Both romantic and unsettling, Orpheus is a landmark of French cinema that continues to inspire filmmakers and artists worldwide. Don’t miss this rare chance to experience a true classic on the big screen.
