After seeing so many silly AT debacles on TV (SYTYCD), Youtube, etc. of how an Argentine Tango- show tango (Fantasia) is supposed to look like, I thought I'd share this video.

At least for me, this is how I measure a performance grade Argentine Tango. They are just downright elegant.

It is Forever Tango, filmed and shown on PBS, and is now available on Netflix. Rent it! Forever Tango (http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Forever_Tango_with_Luis_Bravo_Live_from_Teatro_Col iseo_Podesta/70092699?trkid=226870)

Of course, I'm biased. I know a couple of the original cast members and have danced with Miriam Larici (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkmMnYz17hU) several times :notworth:

And as it's about sharing a video, Youtube suggests itself

True. You can go to youtube and do a search for "Forever Tango." However, the videos on youtube are taken from their original theatrical run of circa 1995...

The OP I did was for a new video they made this year (2008 ), which btw, the cinematography is so much better.
