History Film / Parking1985

* DontLookBack: Hades allows Orpheus to retrieve Eurydice so long as he doesn't look at her until they've both reached the living world; Orpheus temporarily solves the problem by using his headband as a blindfold. [[spoiler:He takes it off to avoid falling, then turns too early to save Eurydice from a speeding car]].

* PortalSlam: Orpheus attempts to enter the Underworld the same way Charon's car did and crashes into a solid wall, wrecking his motorcycle.

* GreenEyedMonster: Calais admits to being jealous of Eurydice, and his advice for Orpheus to move on after her death is particularly callous since he says it during the funeral.

Orpheus is a world-famous pop singer with two great loves: Eurydice is a sculptress who designs his album covers, and Calais is his beloved sound engineer. At one of his concert rehearsals, an electrical malfunction briefly kills Orpheus, sending him to a dreary Underworld derived from the metro. Hades and Persephone are willing to forgive the intrusion, as it was a clerical error, so long as Orpheus doesn't tell a soul where he's been. But when Eurydice dies of a drug overdose, Orpheus decides to head back to the Underworld to save his love's soul, regardless of what Calais thinks.
