If you loved La bella e la bestia, try Orfeo
Un ponte tra un film che hai già visto e uno che quasi nessuno ha incrociato. Questo è ciò che condividono, e ciò che il secondo fa che il primo non fa.
Cosa condividono
Both films are directed by Jean Cocteau, and they both carry the foreign gem, slow burn, surreal mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Fantasy / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to La bella e la bestia, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Orfeo is
Cocteau here asks: what if a really self-important poet met Death? Orpheus, a well-regarded author, finds himself entranced by a mysterious princess and follows her into the underworld. Turns out, the path to artistic inspiration lies beyond the veil.
