  • This week Branson picked Black Orpheus (1959) directed by Marcel Camus. It is a modern retelling of the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, set against the backdrop of the vibrant Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro. The film follows the passionate love affair between Orpheu (Brent Mello), a talented streetcar conductor and musician, and Eurydice (Marpessa Dawn), a country girl who comes to the city seeking refuge. Marcel Camus beautifully captures the pulsating energy of the Carnival, the infectious music, and the colorful traditions of Brazil. The film won both the Palm d’Or at Cannes and the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Its success helped popularize bossa nova music globally, introducing the world to the sounds of artists like Antonio Carlos Jobim and Luiz Bonfá. It introduced audiences worldwide to the rich culture and vibrant spirit of Brazil, leaving an indelible mark on the history of world cinema.
