Description

Bargain Bin Film School is the only non-accredited film school in the greater Kansas City Area. Jean Cocteau’s update of the Orpheus myth depicts a famous poet (Jean Marais), scorned by the Left Bank youth, and his love for both his wife, Eurydice (Marie Déa), and a mysterious princess (Maria Casarès). Seeking inspiration, the poet follows the princess from the world of the living to the land of the dead, through Cocteau’s famous mirrored portal. Orpheus’s peerless visual poetry and dreamlike storytelling represent the legendary Cocteau at the height of his powers. Bargain Bin Film School is the only non-accredited film school in the greater Kansas City Area taught by someone who's only taken ONE film class in college. Each month BBFS looks at a classic of world cinema, but this time with less film bros ad more fun.
