A good point of reference might be Black Orpheus, although this film is more overtly political and challenging. The music and dance are fantastic, and well integrated into the action; it actually makes sense when these characters burst into song. And the background score is provided by the great jazz composer and saxophonist David Murray. Djeinaba Diop GaŹ«Á, the actress in the title role, is a force of nature. This gets only four stars for some spotty dialog and a few awkward holes in the script, but overall it's well worth watching and a great introduction to African cinema. ![]() Karmen (With a Happy End) $19.98 Goran Bregovic is one of the best contemporary composers over the globe, and this is one of his finest works. A reinterpretation of the classic "Carmen" by George Bizet with a strong and colorfull gipsy flavor, and with the add of a booklet with english translated lyrics that allow you to follow easier the narrative of the work. |
