a video: the recent family reunion

pasion re-union from [sub]urban rambler on Vimeo.

to watch, password: pasion
[with music, so turn up the volume]
music by the argentine, carlos gardel's por una cabeza, [translation here] guitar instrumentation and played by another porteno, juanjo dominguez. more of juanjo's music here. and here. another version done by a bandoneon [group] here and a quintet here. [youtube after links]

a fantastic recent use of 'cabeza'-- in a denouement of a scene which stars al pacino as the gruff + tuff, but passionate [no pun- but see why the music was used?], if cynical and hopeless blind former military officer-- the central character here, in the movie: 'scent of a woman' [youtube], see also and as discussed here.

incidentally, a related story on the reunion here [and of the yet-to-be-delivered series of familial tales promised in same-- look for it at your local barnes & noble or amazon.com.]
