It takes two to tango.
I was sitting in the almost empty first row minding my own business, when this muhajabah chick who’s somehow related to hala February festival (PR Shit) came and sat next to me. Now I’m ok with sitting next to muhajabaat and everything but I’m not ok with a million fucker trying to get pictures of that muhajabah who sat next to me. I started involuntary shifting in my seat, doing some weird body gestures saying ‘FUCK OFF I DON’T WANT TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED, NOT NEXT TO THIS CHICK’. However they continued taking pictures (Stills & Video). Who knew Kuwait cinema club film weeks are that important to the hala wallah festival. Tell me If you see a weird guy wearing orange shirt with afro sitting next to a muhajbah. It should be in the papers today.
‘Tango’ is one of these movies where there’s a lot of mind-play, not in a thriller-like way but more like yousif shaheen’s stuff (if you know what I mean). The film is about this guy who is working on a film about tango, and a lot of the film is inspired by his own life.
It’s a musical, so don’t call the movie ‘dark’ or ‘weird’ just because ‘I didn’t get it’. (you hear me?) The dancing was perfect as well as the soundtrack.
Talking about soundtracks and tango, I recommend the following:
Tangos – Silvana Deluigi & Luis Di Matteo
Gotan Project - La Revancha del Tango

I swear i’ll call you and talk your ear of if you keep saying it is a musical. that damn movie is not a musical and it is dark. dark with the man’s passion for his udultrouse ex wife and his obsession with reanacting her unfaithfulness with chereographic it into her dancing with the partner he suspectsed her cheating with, plus he wants to kill her in her dance and all that.
nevertheless fantastic movie and dancing and music, and seriously poeple do not I say do not watch it with anybody unless they know how to play dead. That movie needs all ones attention.
As for dancing do they teach tango in kuwait?Am a great danncer and i would love to learn it I think it is the ultimate. Youve got yourself a partner Tata if there is.
