Parking (1985)

Parking is director Jacques Demy’s homage to Jean Cocteau’s 1948 masterwork Orpheus. As in the Cocteau film, Demy relates the Orpheus and Euridyce legend in a contemporary setting. Now a rock ‘n’ roll sensation (instead of the poet of the Cocteau film) Orpheus falls in love with Eurydice, who in this version is a sculptress rather than a princess. The rest of the film adheres to the familiar story. Euridyce, who is death personified, beckons Orpheus into Hell, ostensibly to revive his dead lover. A shade brighter and more buoyant than its source material, Parking is the usual Jacques Demy brew of beautiful imagery and hokey dialogue.

Director: Jacques Demy.
Stars: Francis Huster, Laurent Malet, Keïko Ito, Gérard Klein, Marie-France Pisier, Jean Marais, Hugues Quester, Eva Darlan, Annick Alane, Marion Game, Jean Amos, Gilles Cohen, Odile Cohen, Daniel Dhubert, Patrick Fierry.
