I saw that movie when it whent out. That is LIFE lesson. When youdid whatever is possible and you made your best. Then nothin had been working the way you planned. So the only thing posible to do in a cese like that: SMILE and DANCE. Charlie.
This is one of the great scenes in cinema history. Anthony Quinn is fantastic. How can one watch this scene without wanting to do the dance? What a beautiful scene: the music, the ocean, the beach, the love.
Comenzar de nuevo, desde el desastre de la crisis. Con alegria y desde cero. Eso es la vida y el amor que se abren paso. Viva Grecia !!! Viva Europa!!! Todos a Bailar!!!
i have been to this very spot. It is in Crete, Stavros beach. I was stationed there in 2000. This island is amazing, the history and culture seems to radiate from the ground into your soul. Love Greece

Για να μου μιλήσεις για την χώρα μου μάθε πρώτα να γράφεις στα Ελληνικά και μετά βρες καναν καραγκιζάκο σαν και σένα να του κάνεις κύρηγμα. Αν θέλεις να μην σου τη λένε, κάνε πρώτος τουμπέκα εσύ. Μου βγήκες απ' το χωριό σου να μου μιλήσεις για την Ελλαδα. Πίσω στην ποντικότρυπά σου
@WanderingOdysseus Ρε καραγκιόζη, ούτε καλά-καλά Έλληνας δεν είσαι απ' ότι βλέπω. Κάθομαι και τρώω την ώρα μου με την πάρτη σου. Δεν συνεχίζω τα σχόλια μόνο και μόνο σεβόμενος την χώρα ΜΟΥ και την ιστορία της.

I really want to watch this movie, i like Anthony Queen, i like Greece even though i havent seen it, i would love to watch this movie and visit Greece someday...
It was their experiences here that Kazantzakis later wrote into The Life and Times of Alexis Zorbas, later translated as Zorba the Greek. His eventful life ended in Skopje, present day Republic of Macedonia, where he settled, remarried, and had more children. He died in 1942 and is buried in the Butel cemetery. Wikipedia ;)
@alekstefano1 wikipedia...where anyone can edit stuff, for example if i say that in Skopje all the people have IQ equal to 10(which is true apparently) does it mean it is truth?
My grandmother and grandfather (yiayia and papou) both saw Zorba the Greek. They could have sworn that Zorba had been played by an actual Greek person, Quinn was that convincing.
No matter what is said about America...I am proud to be one! It has always been the US that has gone FIRST to aid those that need help. My tax dollars along will millions of others has helped countries fight AIDS and starvation. More Americans than any others help with 3rd world countries with schools and housing. Greedy Bastards , yes thats America LOL
@Anatolia612 It's probably a Sumerian folk dance which has been passed down to the whole region for 5,000 years. I think there's a similar dance from Persia to Portugal.
A bit of ancient life, still with us after all these centuries.
@kittykatro the accusation of lazyness is back to you from the people that work more than anyone in E.U. (by european statistics). your opinion should be kept for yourself and don't insult a hole nation just because you have believed in propaganda some tell you. You are not allowed to have any relation to our inheritage. Cause it is Global and far above you. Really what your country left in Global Civilization????? Vlad Tepes(Dracula)??? wow!!! Thrilling!!!!
@sklimaios7 Without the Romanians we wouldn't have today fountain pens, jet planes,rockets,computers,etc. Search on Youtube "A world without Romania" and see for yourself!
@kittykatro I really could live without all that and goalkeepers that save 4 penaltys in a row.I wouldn't live without art, literature, theater, umanism, religious tolerance, and so more human values and archetypes inherited from Greek and Greek-roman antiquity....
this could carry on.dont't insult a hole nation just cause you told so.I worked from 8am to 10pm for years. Eventually, I cost a lot to the company and I got fired.no job now anywhere.But i keep dancing..and feeling happy for life!!
@sklimaios7 LOL! Without computers you wouldn't be able to write and post this messages on Youtube,man!...As for the Ancient Greek art, literature, theater that was made a long time ago, and it's completely irrelevant today! Who reads Greek poets or watches Greek theatre anymore?
@kittykatro so simple that life would be....you wouldn't imagine how relevant are "old" creations-not only greek. Society's rules and mechanismes are basicly the same. it is obvious to me that you are a mind that wouldn't listen. Instead of telling me about Ionesko, Eminesku, Lupu etc you think rockets and pens are civilization accomplishments. Read man, study, seek, think, choose! explore your world. you won't lose. History is doing circles... Greetings from Hellas..
@kittykatro how can you be so stupid kittykatro? Who watches Greek theater? Oh my god besides illiterate you are idiot too. The very language you speak you moran is based on Greek. The play like drama and theater generally the planet owes it to the greeks. The medicine science and I can count many many others. And you wonder who watches Greek theater? I hope not many people share your opinion cause I dont want to think that so many STUPID people exist..
@kittykatro yes!yes!yes!so how you dare to speak and to compare Greece with the fucking gipsy country(romania)?what the fuck is that?are you fucking blind?you are the dirtiest race in the world!you are The most famous thieves in the world!you are the people everyone who hates to have close because all of these reasons!you are the last everywhere!look what hapens with Roman!the fucking gipsy!you are problem for all the europinans civillazed countries!open your eyes poor mongolian gipsy romanian..
@kittykatro I wish it was like that but the truth is we work our arses off for ridiculously low salaries. I don't feel the need to insult romania or to brag about greece. I would appreciate it if you didn't behave the same way, especially if you don't know what you are talking about.
@1dimipan Why do people give you thumbs for this digusting portray of nationalism! Zorba himself says in the movie, all people are the same, turk or greek.
@dadgadable Of course all people are the same but have differences between them: religion,culture, way of living, customs habits... It is very important for all of us to know the culture of other people in a multi-cultural Europe and we can succeed this by watching a film, listening a song, travelling...My comment is simpy a farewell to a great director and not a disgusting portray of nationalism as you said... I respect your opinion but allow me to have my own...
@1dimipan Zorba's character had nothing to do with being "A Greek', Zorba represents freedom of care and worry, yet honest and pure in motives. He is like the "perfect" man, because he is so imperfect. These are universal features.
@dadgadable And what is the greatest commandment? To refuse all consolations, gods, homes, moral, true - to be left alone and begin to conjure up, with only your strength, a world that does not shame your heart .. . Nikos Kazantzakis-author of "Alexis Zorba"

@kittykatro I wish it was like that but the truth is we work our arses off for ridiculously low salaries. I don't feel the need to insult romania or to brag about greece. I would appreciate it if you didn't behave the same way, especially if you don't know what you are talking about.

@1dimipan Why do people give you thumbs for this digusting portray of nationalism! Zorba himself says in the movie, all people are the same, turk or greek.

@dadgadable Of course all people are the same but have differences between them: religion,culture, way of living, customs habits... It is very important for all of us to know the culture of other people in a multi-cultural Europe and we can succeed this by watching a film, listening a song, travelling...My comment is simpy a farewell to a great director and not a disgusting portray of nationalism as you said... I respect your opinion but allow me to have my own...

@1dimipan Zorba's character had nothing to do with being "A Greek', Zorba represents freedom of care and worry, yet honest and pure in motives. He is like the "perfect" man, because he is so imperfect. These are universal features.

@dadgadable And what is the greatest commandment? To refuse all consolations, gods, homes, moral, true - to be left alone and begin to conjure up, with only your strength, a world that does not shame your heart .. . Nikos Kazantzakis-author of "Alexis Zorba"
