5 out of 5 stars A Warning To Young Men .......2007-05-21

The movie adeptly shows how a young man, full of hope, grace, honor, skill and loyalty could be lead astray by a clever and attractive young girl, whose morals are profoundly alien to his own.

Glenn Ford's character doesn't see it coming, but he is gradually pulled into her world, simply by showing her kindness and attention; he's too tolerant.

3 out of 5 stars Rita, the gypsy enchantress who took over the leadership of a gang of mountain-dwelling marauders..........2007-01-07

The casting of Rita Hayworth as Carmen, the passionate Spanish gypsy who rolls her own cigarettes and picks her own men, was inspired; "The Loves of Carmen," was not...

Making lavish use of her considerable charms, physical assets and whatever acting ability was necessary, Rita made her Carmen the most colorful, heartless and hot-blooded screen heroine of the year... Although by this time Rita's mind was on the Riviera, where she was about to embark on the great romantic adventure of her life...

Ford was not able to make audiences believe in him as the Spaniard with spoiled love life since his acting forte usually followed a much different romantic approach--Offer the heroine yourself, the prospects of a happy future and a direct sexual approach, open and above-board... And if that fails, a few fast slaps across the chops would usually bring any reluctant heroine to her senses...

5 out of 5 stars The Loves of Carmen 1948.......2006-04-15

Transfer in High resulution with superb shar and clear pictures . Truly Recommended ! Pure Hollywood nostalgic movie

4 out of 5 stars She Was A Gypsy Woman.......2006-02-28

Based on Bizet's tragic Spanish opera, this was Rita Hayworth's first film made by her production company, Beckworth (derived from her screen surname and from the name of her daughter, Rebecca). She decided on her close friend and favorite leading man, Glenn Ford, as Don Jose to her Carmen. The results are far better than some reviews would have you believe.

The glorious, lush Techincolor is fabulous (studio-bound as most of the sets may be), while Hayworth's unforgettable screen presence, dancing and bewitching beauty, and the heat generated between her and Ford makes this movie memorable. The sequence in which she describes what virtues a lover should have (complete with putting her finger to his lips) sparkles with sensual static. Granted, Ford looks stiff and ill at ease in his uniform (after he sheds his soldier garb and dons his "bandit clothing", he appears much more relaxed).

If it is deemed worthy enough to be released as part of the Columbia Classics collection, so should "Affair In Trinidad", another Hayworth/Ford collaboration.

It's just great to look at, flaws aside. If you adore Rita and Glenn, even in a tempestuous, volatile romance, this movie will provide that for you.

Was there ever a more enticing, tempestous gypsy with so many men in her life but only one true and ultimately tragic love?




5 out of 5 stars RITA HAYWORTH GAVE GOOD FACE!!!.......2005-05-17

I recently decided to purchase this film on vhs instead of dvd, because I figured there were probably no extras. Needless to say I was extremely delighted at the superb quality of this movie on a used vhs tape!!! Rita was simply magnificent as the wild gypsy Carmen!!! She came alive as the red-haired vixen like no other. The dance scenes alone are worth seeing this passionate film. I agree with another reviewer who felt that Glenn Ford was miscast as the don who falls for the electrifying Carmen, but it's of very little importance because Rita Hayworth completely carries the film. When you have a film starring Rita Hayworth it doesn't matter who her co-star is!!!
