Rudolph Valentino 1921 Tango

Rudolph Valentino (one of the first Hollywood stars) dancing tango here in the silent film of 1921, THE FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE APOCALYPSE. It is the first video filmed of anybody dancing tango (the tango was born in Buenos Aires around 1890). This scene is one of the most famous moments in the history of silent movies. Beatrice Domínguez (born in 1896 in California of Spanish parents) was the actress who dances here. In 1921, at the age of 24, and before the film was completed, Beatrice died from a ruptured appendix. Rudolph Valentino also died of a similar ailment, five years later, at the age of 31 years.

Who knows what music they were really dancing to, but the 3 tangos I inserted in this copy of the movie were all recorded by the orchestra of Francisco Canaro many years after the movie was produced and I obviously adjusted the speed of the movie in certain spots to match the dancing with the music. Enjoy!

Que lo disfruten!

[@madamvaudelune3298]

According to Natasha Rambova, he was actually a gentle, rather passive man who lived by 'il metodo;' the Italian bourgeois belief in regularity and predictable daily routine. He worked, he came home, read the paper, went to bed. His grueling routine at work left him time for little else. Its a.little sad that a man who worked so hard for success got to enjoy very little of it.

[@bernardocarlosblanco8397]

Vicente Blasco Ibañez fue un escritor valenciano que escribió el libro "Los cuatro jinetes del apocalipsis" en 1916 y anteriormente en 1908 "Sangre y arena", entre muchos otros libros. Los cuatro jinetes del apocalipsis fue un éxito de ventas en EEUU y por eso se lo llevó al cine en 1921, ese año fue la película más taquillera de Hollywood, 4.500.000 de dólares superando a "The Kid" de Charles Chaplin, también fue el primer gran éxito de Hollywood y una de las 6 películas más taquilleras de la historia del Cine mudo, por lo mismo fue el primer gran éxito de Rodolfo Valentino y al año siguiente filmó "Sangre y arena" que como dije era del mismo autor. El Cine mudo fue el impulsor de Hollywood, todos los grandes estudios empezaron en esos años ya que luego el cine tuvo la competencia de la TV y la radio, lo que recaudó esta película es el equivalente a 200 millones de dólares actuales.

Today, May 6, in 1895 Rudy was born, 125 years ago... Sadly, his dance partner, Beatrice Dominguez passed away in 1921 before this movie was released. She was only 24, and her death was very similar to Rudy's: complications after appendicitis.

Another dance number ruined by the constant cutting away. Makes you understand the true revolution in filmed dance instituted by Fred Astaire, who had it in his contract that all of his musical numbers would be filmed in long shot without cuts, from beginning to end. Not only were there no intrusions from reaction shots or comedy relief, but the full bodies of the dancers were always visible. Every step, every graceful gesture, every bend, every sway, there to enjoy forever. Nothing lost. Thank you, Mr. Astaire! 🕺💃

Do you know how that rumor started? Just who and what?

[@evelaing3483]

He married the wrong sort of girl :) she was an actress involved with a few other women and she rapidly needed a husband to clear her reputation. they separated soon after. As time passed he was close to many lesbians and gays. Biographers agree he probably loved women. He confided to Louella Parsons that the only women he love didn’t love him, and the rest didn’t matter. ..

Estuve buscando en internet y descubrí que esta película tiene una historia que va mucho más allá de Rodolfo Valentino y el tango, eso es lo primero que llama la atención y por lo que lo ví ya que amo al tango desde siempre. Resulta que el libro del español Vicente Blasco Ibañez: "Los cuatro fantásticos" escrito en francés en 1918 fue traducido al inglés en EEUU en 1919 siendo el libro MÁS VENDIDO ESE AÑO en norteamerica con el título: "The four horsemen of the apocalypse" también fue exitoso en los otros países triunfadores de la 1ra Guerra mundial. Es que el libro en realidad es sobre la primera guerra mundial y está ambientado en 1914, en ARGENTINA, por eso dije que el tango fue un condimento de Hollywood ya que en el libro es algo totalmente anecdótico, diferente es el libro del mismo autor "Sangre y arena" que sí habla de los toros ya que el autor es valenciano. Tan es así que en 1962 Hollywood hace una remake de esta película y el papel de Rodolfo Valentino, Julio Desnoyers, es interpretado por otro galán, Glenn Ford, que por supuesto baila tango pero de manera mucho más discreta y sin ser el tema central de la trama. En la remake de 1962 además actúa Charles Boyer, el papel del patriarca familiar Julio Madariaga es interpretado por una leyenda de Hollywood, Lee J. Cobb y dirigida por Vincente Minnelli, marido de Judy Garland, los padres de Liza Minnelli. Claro que la versión de 1962 además de por supuesto ser hablada y a color, sigue basada en una familia ARGENTINA pero sobre la 2da guerra mundial y la rivalidad de los yernos alemanes y franceses en torno al na-zi s mo.

Под небом звёздным. Под звуки - чарующей мелодии. Покоряющей сердце. Пары, тесно прижавшись. Глаза в глаза. Со страстью - искры её. Пробегали - между ними. Танго танцевали. В танце этом - полным, Любви и страсти. Весь - темперамент огненный. Людей, горячей крови - Аргентинцев. Рождённых, в тропиках. Под созвездием - Южного Креста и Козерога. Пара - танцующая танго. Им зачарованные. Их души - в единую слиты. И нервные импульсы. По телу пробегают. Сердца, в унисон - бьються. В глазах - пламя любви, Возгорается. Танго манит - порывами. Откровенности чувств. Подчинению тел. Отточенным движениям. Плавной элегантности. С порывами - темпераментной, страсти. Нежности - тесных объятий. Всё - есть, в танце. Под названием - танго. Танго давно - весь, мир покорило. И второй век - шествует по планете. Написаны - сотни мелодий. Медленных и быстрых. Его танцевали - наши прабабушки. И нам - танцевать завещали. Ах танго, танго. Танец - любви и страсти. Полный - откровения чувств. Огненного темперамента. И элегантной грусти - Мгновений. Слияния - душ, тел и сердец - В танце. Умолкла мелодия - и всё. Распалось единство!

I remember seeing photos of Valentino as The Sheik and a very short clip of Valentino playing The Son of the Sheik - from the books by Edith Hull - when I was at school. He will always epitomise ''The Sheik'' to me, whether it was the father or the son [and I read both books as a teenager]. Not sure if it is just me but somehow the film stars of yesteryear are far far better looking [and that is without modern make-up and cinematic trickery] than they are today, and not just Valentino either.
