Eighties Orpheus (Mad Love star Francis Huster) never removes his rock star headband, even at his wife’s funeral when she ODs after seeing him kissing his dude Calais (Laurent Malet of Querelle and some quality Ruiz films). Good stunt casting of OG Orpheus Jean Marais as Hades in a Schindler-colored afterlife, and Celine & Julie‘s Marie-France Pisier as his co-conspirator. Whenever the guy sings I suffer through it, then when Legrand plays the same tune over the next scene I decide it’s rather nice.
