Time was long before I met her, but is longer since we parted,
And the east wind has arisen and a hundred flowers are gone,
And the silk-worms of spring will weave until they die
And every night the candles will weep their wicks away.
Mornings in her mirror she sees her hair-cloud changing,
Yet she dares the chill of moonlight with her evening song.
...It is not so very far to her Enchanted Mountain
O blue-birds, be listening!-Bring me what she says!

BAILANDO BAHIA BLANCA CARLOS DI SARLI, EN EL FILM ASSASSINATION TANGO (GERALDINE ROJAS & OSVALDO PAIVA)


這篇沒有要談舞技，而是舞會動線！也許是導演不懂吧？個人覺得電影中男生在舞池裡，都會為了show-off一直在場中央做些花俏的動作，動線很糟，可以說是milonga精神的不良示範。只有一直在外圍動線的人才是真milogero啊。

Just backward of her folk's house

Here is Katie's mountain

in where she and her father go hiking always



It is near Anchorage in Alaska

there, the air might be cold and clear

there, the water might be cool and pure

there, the snow is melting for the comming summer...
