2: What Hope'
In his first talk. Mr. Ross assessed how much fuel the crust of the earth might contain - and he reached an unexpected conclusion. Tonight he discusses what hope we have of finding this fuel and using it-and what might happen if we did.

An evocation by Carl Wildman

Jean Cocteau, born in 1889 at Maisons-Laffitte, died at Milly-la-Foret in 1963, buried in solitude in an isolated chapel. His mural paintings of local herbs, standing guard around him, flake away.

There lies a poet who had an astonishing variety of gifts - dramatist, film-maker, novelist, critic, caricaturist, designer, composer of ballets - here reflected in his works and through the words of those who knew him in early days and later years:
Pierre Georgel, organiser of the exhibition, Jean Cocteau et son temps
Jean Victor Hugo, the painter
Jean Cassou, Cocteau's successor at the Academie Royale de Belgique
Georges Auric, director of the Paris Opera, and Darius Milhaud, two of Les Six group of composers
Jean Marais, the stage and film actor
Robert Bresson, the film-maker
Emmanuel Berl, novelist and friend of Anna de Noailles
Jacques Rueff, Cocteau's successor at the Academie Francaise

Jean Cassou, Georges Auric, Jean Marais and Emmanuel Berl speak in French

Illustrated by gramophone records and BBC recordings
(Third broadcast)
