In the spring program of BIT Teatergarasjen 2003, it is written about 2 Antigone by tg STAN that Cocteau's version from 1922 is "short, powerful and in heroic style, as known from the ancient tragedies", whereas Anouilh's version from 1944 is "more human, with connotations of disillusionment and desperate existentialism".
