The is a full length movie of the adaptation of the novel Carmen. Many of you will be familiar with it. This movie is absolutely fascinating and stars Antonio Gades whose dance I posted just above a couple of days or so ago. If subtitles don't show for you there may be an icon on the bottom of the screen to enable it.
Carmen is a 1983 film adaptation of the novel Carmen by Prosper Mérimée, using music from the opera Carmen by Georges Bizet. It was directed and choreographed in the flamenco style by Carlos Saura and Maria Pagès. It is the second part of Saura's flamenco trilogy in the 1980s, preceded by Bodas de sangre and followed by El amor brujo. The film's basic plot line is that the modern dancers re-enact in their personal lives Bizet's tragic love affair, up to its lethal climax.

I was trying to follow their feet as best as I could. It wasn't easy,but the dance steps seemed to be pretty simple in reality. Pretty neat and also interesting how the mind plays tricks on us.
