Francine Weisweiller and "L'homme chien" (Guy Dute and Jean-Claude Petit). During filming of "Le Testament d’Orphée", film of Jean Cocteau. Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat 1959.
In a garden in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Francine Weisweiller stands in an elaborate period costume during the filming of Jean Cocteau's "Le Testament d’Orphée". In the background, Guy Dute and Jean-Claude Petit perform as "L'homme chien," clad only in polka-dotted loincloths and a whimsical, animal-like mask. The scene presents a surreal and theatrical contrast between the elegantly attired woman and the playfully costumed men. 1959.
