About this product

Product Information

Carlos Saura has dedicated a good part of his career to bringing the diverse world of Spanish dance to an international audience. He is perhaps best known for the trilogy of CARMEN, BLOODWEDDING, and A LOVE BEWITCHED, taken from the works of Bizet and Garcia Lorca, but also for SEVILLANAS, which, like FLAMENCO, presents the talents of a variety of artists in a straightforward setting. The beautiful cinematography by Vittorio Storaro, who later shot the spectacular GOYA IN BORDEAUX for Saura, is the only element of the film that strays from its documentary feel. Using an old railroad station in Seville, fitted with mirrors, for the setting, Saura presents 300 singers, dancers and musicians. There are guitarists playing moving and mournful solos, women singing gypsy ballads and, of course, floor pounding, straight shouldered dancers who look right into the camera with those dark, smouldering, Spanish eyes. The clear star of the dance segments is the mesmerizing Joaquin Cortes. Doing what is deemed the New Flamenco style, Cortes combines elements of 18th century classical dance with more recent innovations. His bare-chested Farruca push the erotic elements to the limit of the style and is certainly the high point of the film. Saura wants to demonstrate not just the flamboyance of flamenco, but the breadth and depth of its integration into Spanish culture, and so he includes a rich variety of styles and performers.

Memorably accomplished dancing but overly strident singing in Saura's FLAMENCO
Carlos Saura's FLAMENCO is more concert recital than vehicle for musical plot. Indeed, there are no recurring characters other than singers and dancers performing classic flamenco repertory. Choreography is first-rate, as is almost always the case with Saura's productions. However, the songs in this film lack variety, nearly all being aggressively voluble and therefore lacking contrast and variety. So the content here is a mixed bag, more likely to please flamenco dance enthusiasts than others. The dvd itself arrived undamaged and was subtitled in English for the greater part. Those seeking plot and characterization in musicals should resort instead to Criterion's set of Saura's Flamenco Trilogy.
