Tango (1998) **

Directed by Carlos Saura. With Miguel Angel Sola, Juan Luis Gallardo and Mia Maestro. The repressed eroticism of this intimate Latin dance is beautifully explored in this slow, almost plotless film, which begins as a paean to the beauty of Argentinian women, but ultimately becomes a powerful allegory about the tragic history of that country. Worth checking out to see gorgeous senioritas sensually moving their slender legs to the steady rhythm of tango.
