GITANO

2000 - Spain
AKA: Gypsy (International: English title)

Director:Manuel Palacios

Starring: Joaquín Cortés ....Laetitia Casta .... Marta Belaustegui

Flamenco Film Noir....Rated R for Nudity


"Spanish Flamenco sensation Joaquin Cortes and French super-model Laetitia Casta in this story about a musician who is struggling to put personal misfortune behind him...... Andres (Cortes) is a flamenco singer who has just gotten out of prison after being falsely convicted of the murder of Romero (Antonio Carmona), a member of his band. As Andres tries to reacclimate himself to freedom, he discovers things have not been going his way while he was up the river; his wife Lucia (Laetitia Casta) is having an affair with another man, while his bullying father Isidoro (Manuel de Blas) is obsessed with getting revenge against Don Manuel, who rules a local crime syndicate known as the Junco Family.

A Flamenco Film Noir.....The cinematographer, Hans Burmann, is great with light, using it crude and clever, creative and beautiful. And the camera-movements (crane-shots; steadycam) are a delight. It gives something extra to the already beautiful locations and sets of Anton Laguna. There is a lot of music in this film (Tomatito for instance, and Rosario and many others)."
