   @joeo10 another "Carmen" trivia bit: in 1951, Peter Sellers narrated a UK re-release

     Tine for something different, although it's been many years since I last saw this one:

     There's a lot of red sightings in this film, which will play a role as you watch it. I won't spoil the plot, but it's one roller coaster.

     Also, pictured here is a Charlie Chaplin poster in the background, @cosullivan if you're familiar with that one...

     @cosullivan Very interesting research, so that's what the translation looks/sounds like. It sounds typical for a Chaplin film to me and I'm going to watch that since it's one of the only ones I haven't seen yet from his catalog.

     Yet another reason why I love the little things and cameos in films especially modern ones released after 1960. It feels like a tribute to the past yet look toward towards the future.

     @cosullivan It got newly restored in 4K and it looks great, just like when it first shown 50 years ago.

     Donald and Julie were great in their roles and the music is one of my fav film scores.
