Directed by Marcel Camus | 1959
With Breno Mello, Marpessa Dawn, Lourdes de Oliveira
This Oscar-winning classic is one of the most visually dazzling films of all time, reimagining the Greek legend of Orpheus and Eurydice as a doomed romance between a poor trolley conductor (Mello) and a country girl (Dawn) in modern-day Rio de Janeiro. Showcasing breathtaking Brazilian locales, vibrant colors and costumes of Carnival, and intoxicating bossa nova rhythms, Black Orpheus is a cinematic feast of rapturous sights and sounds.
