“让·谷克多把俄耳甫斯进入冥界寻找爱人的神话搬到现代巴黎，将死亡、诗歌与镜子连接在一起。它不是古典神话的复原，而是一次真正把神话重新变成电影艺术的作品。”
剧情概览
奥菲斯是一名成功的诗人，有一次看到咖啡馆外另一名英俊诗人被车撞死。一位神秘公主向他示范如何让撞死的诗人死而复活，后来又让自己的司机送他回家。奥菲斯回家后全然不顾周围的事情，连妻子被杀也惘顾，一心从收音机接收神秘信息，并潜心创作诗歌。司机怀疑是公主觊觎奥菲斯才杀害他妻子，于是他跟奥菲斯一起穿越镜子，到另一个世界寻找公主和他妻子。本片中死亡的形象（即公主）跟《第七封印》齐名，里面融入了纳粹的元素。

系列合集: 奥菲斯（系列）
Decadent, subversive, and bristling with artistic invention, the myth-born cinema of Jean Cocteau disturbs as much as it charms. Cocteau was the most versatile of artists in prewar Paris. Poet, novelist, playwright, painter, celebrity, and maker of cinema—his many talents converged in bold, dreamlike films that continue to enthrall audiences around the world. In "The Blood of a Poet," "Orpheus," and "Testament of Orpheus," Cocteau utilizes the Orphic myth to explore the complex relationships between the artist and his creations, reality and the imagination.
