Jean Cocteau was a poet, novelist, dramatist, designer, and filmmaker. Saturday we watch La Belle e La Bête with the original film score and then part of the film with the Philip Glass Opera, which gave it a totally different and beautiful perspective. As we see in the clip above and in the film we watched, mirrors were often magical objects in Cocteau's films.
