In 1959, Jean Cocteau looked back on his artistic journey for the TĂ©lĂ© Monte-Carlo television show Tout la vĂ©ritĂ©, rien que la vĂ©ritĂ©. The program ends with a tasty anecdote about television that Cocteau describes as a âbox of tricksâ. A few weeks later, in the same Victorine studios, Cocteau directed most of the sequences for his last opus: The Testament of Orpheus (1959).
