La canción del olvido (1969)
Excellent Operetta
At the end of the '60 and early '70 Spanish Television made this series dedicated to the Spanish Operettas: "Zarzuelas". I watch them in Puerto Rico hosted by Daniel Lugo. I accompanied my father, an enthusiast of "Zarzuelas" to watch this full collection that included among others, "La Canción del Olvido", "Los Bohemios" "Maruxa","La Verbena De la Paloma", "La del Manojo De Rosas", if my memory does not fail. They were professionally photographed in color, and filmed in 35mm for greater visual quality. Handsome Spanish actors dubbed professional singers to make a nice looking show. They show many folkloric ways of the Spanish life during the late XIX century and early XX. Mosto of them were filmed in studios but in some cases they use outdoor scenes of the wide an variety of sceneries in Spain. Notable the mountain scenes of Maruxa because it is a pastoral Opera. If they were on sale in DVD I'll bought them all.
