A clip from the 1956 movie Kefaya Ya Ein (title in english is DRY YOUR EYES) Naemet Mokhtar plays the part of a dancer at a club and she also has a small acting role in this film as the good friend and partner in crime of two unsavory criminals played by Egyptian actors Stephan Rosti and Mahmoud El Melegi (they are the two men sitting at the table, talking)
The song that Naemet is dancing to is Walla Mana Sali (I Swear I Will Not Stop) a very famous song by Mohamed Abdul Wahab. At the beggining of the film there is a message of gratitude written to Abdul Wahab for allowing them to use his song for Naemet Mokhtar's dance scene.
The name of this movie, Kefaya Ya Ein is also the name of a very famous song composed and sung by Farid El Atrash. There is also a message of gratitude and appreciation written to Farid el Atrash at the beggining of this film for composing the song as well as a message of gratitude to the Egyptian Broadcasting Corporation for allowing the use of Farid's song and his vocals in several parts throughout the movie and for allowing them to name the movie itself after the title of Farid's song.
