@suavemente74. Yes. If you wanna see contemporary dancing of Son, search Eric Turro or Juan Luis Pacheco. Son is a gentleman's dance, classy, elegant, and smooth, with the woman supporting the man. It is dance against the beat (contra-tiempo). The white people saw this, they copied the rhythm and put it in ballroom and call it "Rhumba".
This clip is from the classic 1939 M-G-M picture, "Another Thin Man" Starring William Powell & Myrna Loy as Mr. & Mrs. Nick & Nora Charles, the detective couple created by Dashiel Hammett. The dancers are listed in the opening credits as Rhumba Specialty by Renee & Stella.
Is this son cubano?
