La Violetera/El Ultimo Cuple

Rating:
Summary: Two Classic Spanish Films
Review: These two films starring Sarita Montiel were the two most successful Spanish films ever. In the years 1957 and 1958 each played for over a year in one theater in Madrid before general distribution. The music is great but the recorded sound on this DVD is marginal. The video quality is not too good. There are no english subtitles. If you collect spanish classic films or are a Sarita Montiel fan, you should own this DVD. It was finally realeased in the USA in Oct 2003.

Summary: La Violetera/El Ultimo Cuple
Review: These two Sara Montiel classics (in one DVD by Slingshot Video) have been copied directly from old film stock onto DVD. The images have scratches here and there, and the sound has noise in many parts. These should have been somewhat restored before releasing them on DVD. The plots are corny but the music and singing is great.
