#Bales2023FilmChallenge April 27: #Morse code heard on #MorseCodeDay

Jean #Cocteau's Orphée [Orpheus] (1950) – here the mythological poet and musician is personified by Jean Marais – accompanies a fallen young poet transported to the Underworld by car. The car radio plays fragments of poetry, interrupted by #MorseCode. When back in this world, #Orphée obsesses over the lines of radical poetry he heard and returns to the car's radio to retrieve them.

Morse code and other industrial sounds serve as a soundscape for Cocteau's characters. They swerve in and out of it, sometimes fully aware of them (Orpheus himself is attuned to the #poetry to be found in emergency radio broadcasts), sometimes passing through like a mirage.
