[@joanschilleci7564]

I have noticed people dancing the Tango in movies set in the 1920's and the partners look away from each other the entire time. The Argentinian Tango originating in less "hoity toity" locales is absolutely the most sensual dance I've ever seen and I understand that people dance it until they are old. Their moves may not be as athletic as Anthony and Patricia's performance but whose are?

[@donnievance1942]

@@joanschilleci7564 The ridiculous theatrical BDSM exercise in this movie has nothing to do with actual Tango. I mean, there was almost nothing in the movements of this stupid piece of exhibitionism that had any overlap whatever with the movement repertoire of actual Tango. Tango is primarily a social dance form noted for it's intimate, focused, and tender communication between the dancers, not some display of violent sexual ambivalence and mutual disdain. Tango is romantic and can be very passionate, but it is not the expression of what I call the War of the Sexes People-- the women who hate men and are attracted to the men who hate women. Hollywood tried to imagine Tango translated into that mode, and this ludicrous and crude extravaganza is the result. But as I said, its actual relationship to Tango is almost nil-- basically limited to nothing but the choice of the musical piece "La Cumparasita." Furthermore, Tango is not an outgrowth of rural Argentine gaucho culture, but an expression that evolved among the international working class of urban Buenas Aires.

The athletic exhibition in this dance was not a tango. If you think this was the way tango "is supposed to be danced" then you have never been around a tango lesson or social tango in your life.

The worldwide misconception about argentine tango is so impressive! Tango in Argentina is (better said, was) mostly a city dance, hence no "cowboy" or "gaucho" garments ever applied. It was a rather intimate and sensual dance, so such ample and throwaway moves were not part of it. Sometime in the ´80s a rather athletic exhibition mode appeared, trying to regain international attracion to it, but it was a dreadful addition in my opinion. Incidentally I am argentine born, before any foreigner jumps to my throat.

[@anthonyorafferty5632]

I completely understand.I was in a tango school in Cuba watching & a woman from Argentina was a traveler guest she commented with me about the lack of intimacy in the dance. She went to lengths to share something of tango's essence. I'm trained in Cuban salsa dancer & have taken one of these throws 'as my own'.

Has very little to do with Argentine Tango, but a super fun scene regardless.

[@leonardocastagna1196]

That tango is NOT argentinian...is the king of all tangos AND IS URUGUAYAN.........like me.

@@leonardocastagna1196 keep dreaming 😁

[@leonardocastagna1196]

southorse "La cumparsita" (little street procession, a grammatical diminutive of la comparsa) is a tango written in 1916 by the Uruguayan musician Gerardo Matos Rodríguez, with lyrics by Pascual Contursi and Enrique Pedro Maroni [es]. It is among the most famous and recognizable tangos of all time.[1]

@@leonardocastagna1196 If the Cumparsita is from Uruguay. But they took the influence of the music of Buenos Aires. Without a doubt

Extraordinar! Excelent! Super! Perfecțiunea in arta tangoului plin de senzualitate și perfecțiune!

Never get tired of this scene. Sends chills up my spine and I wish I could dance like that.

The dance is great, for sure.

@Heru...Entonces cuales son sus opiniones de este Tango con Valentino y Beatriz Dominguez? La cara de ella me facina mientras bailando aqui, kzbin.info/www/bejne/eKG0pnSKmdqFrNE

[@heru-deshet359]

@@jayyoung4534 Beatriz ciertamente esta contando sus sentimientos para Valentino con su rostro. Los pasos, aunque no se ven tan dramatico debido a la tecnologia de la epoca y la falta de flujo normal en moviento, son mas intricos y bailados con precision.

[@heru-deshet359]

@@derekthompson3907 With all due respect. Are you nuts?! Lol. There is no comparison between that sensationalist Hollywood dance number and Dexter's classic rendition in tribute to Valentino. It's like comparing the "Twist" to a Waltz.
