Haven't seen it, see it. Seen it? see it again. Why does death want Eurydice? Because she is pure, eternal love that can conquer death.
I love this movie! Beautiful aesthetic, engaging plot line based on a Greek myth, gorgeous sad ending
Extremely beautiful, whether for the history, landscape or music
One if not the most beautiful film I've ever seen. Its beautiful to watch, the music is amazing, and the happiness is so pure.
Light on plot, but heavy on infectious joy, Black Orpheus is a delightful celebration of Mardi Gras
Amazing music& scenery. This retelling works beautifully
Good turn on a Greek myth. Low plot, but so colorful and beautiful soundtrack. Sensual and tragic, but hopeful ending. Poetic.
Beautiful, bitter sweet interpretation of a traditional Greek mythological tale.
This film stands out like no other — it’s authentic, compelling, poetic, romantic and tragic all at once. The music especially is amazing
A great take on the old tragedy, but more like a play than a period piece. Good tunes.
