According to the doctors, Jean Cocteau exhausted himself while filming his poetic universe for television over a two-week period in Milly-la-Forêt (...) And our photo taken during the making of this programme shows Jean Cocteau already tired in the company of Roger Stéphane (left) the director and Roland Darbois (centre). 23 April 1963".
