Orphée. Directed by Jean Cocteau. Set in contemporary Paris /the film is a variation on the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, and is partially based on Cocteau’s 1926 play of the same title.

“Where does our story take place...

and when?

A legend is entitled to be

beyond time and place.

Interpret it as you wish...”

--

From Bob Dylan’s Highway 61 Revisited liner notes --

On the slow train time does not interfere & at the Arabian crossing waits White Heap, the man from the newspaper & behind him the hundred Inevitables made of solid rock & stone -- the Cream Judge & the Clown -- the doll house where Savage Rose & Fixable live simply in their wild animal luxury . . . . Autumn, with two zeros above her nose arguing over the sun being dark or Bach is as famous as its commotion & that she herself -- not Orpheus -- is the logical poet “I am the logical poet” she screams “Spring? Spring is only the beginning!” she attempts to make Cream Judge jealous by telling him of down-to-earth people & while the universe is erupting, she points to the slow train & prays for rain and for time to interfere --

I posted this film earlier. I really liked this —

A Woman of Paris: A Drama of Fate. 1923 silent film. Directed by Charlie Chaplin

“Charlie Chaplin’s long-overlooked silent masterpiece A Woman of Paris is a revelation. Chaplin confounded 1923 audiences with this unexpected foray into serious drama, and by ceding the spotlight to his long time screen partner Edna Purviance. She is captivating as the vivacious Marie St. Clair, a “woman of fate” ...

Far between sundown’s finish an’ midnight’s broken toll
We ducked inside the doorway /thunder crashing
As majestic bells of bolts struck shadows in the sounds
Seeming to be the chimes of freedom flashing

There are some people who, upon discovering that the world is not quite as it seems, grow either very frightened or very proud. Edward Linley did neither. He merely adjusted his spectacles, blinked twice, and assumed he had overlooked something obvious.

From Letters Never Sent: Marlon Brando to Malcolm X:

“I’ve seen the machinery you’re up against. It doesn’t just oppose, it absorbs, distorts, repackages. It turns rebellion into spectacle and outrage into something consumable. You are one of the few men I’ve seen who refuses to be digested that way. That refusal is your strength. It’s also the thing that paints a target on your back in bold, unmistakable ink.”
