FYI--Houston Tango Festival will have a short tango film festival (under 5 mins.) as part of its program next year--January 22-25, 2009. We will announce it in the next few months.

Cheers,

Alex, have you seen "Surrender Tango"? A wonderful small film.
I have the trailer for it on my blog. It is 4 or 5 entries down,
It is hard to find or rent, but I have her email if anyone wants to order it.

Hi Elizabeth!

No, I haven't seen it, but I think I posted something about it last year.

I've updated my post to include it and one other - "Tanghi Argentini" - which was nominated for an Oscar this year, but did not win.

Bravo! I tip my hat to you; I envy you and admire you. I am Argentinean and, to my regret, I have never learned how to do the Tango...as much as I love it, both as a song and as a dance.
you write with such ease and confidence that it makes a person feel as if one is listening to a friend. Thanks! I am glad I came across your blog.
All the Best!
DiStelvio.

Hola DiStelvio!

Thank you for the kind words.

It's never too late to learn the tango you know...

Take care,

Alex

Alex, this is *exactly* why I always read your blog first. (What a perfect way to start my day.) Thank you for posting these.

tanghi argentini is available now in a compilation of 2007 academy award nominated shorts... it is only about 11 minutes long, & completely charming! sweet & funny.
