Carmen - Film June 12, 2009

Carmen - Film. Directed by Christian-Jaque, 1946, Drama / Music. She is flashily ribald and voluptuous as the gypsy slattern of Seville who flings her charms in gay abandon before a panting Don Jos. She is snaky and undependable as the siren who lures her reckless beau, dishonored and lost to sober reason, into the life of a highwayman. And she is curiously solemn and exalted as she turns to her doomed matador and finally surrenders fatalistically to the vengeance of jealous Don Jose. 'Carmen' is an operatic story-and that's a fact.
