Carmen Jones on Blu-ray
It’s tough to find romance – especially nowadays. How about a classic romantic tragedy with Carmen Jones?
Love this film. Had to nab it on Blu-ray at last. 💕🎞️📀

#FilmTribute Sneaking into an over-16s film in my early teens, I was captivated by Carmen Jones' electric energy. Olga James, its singing star, has passed at 95. Despite the ban from the cinema, I cherish that memory. 🎥🎶 #CarmenJones #OlgaJamesRIP

It doesn’t matter how crowded or interesting the shot or location is, no matter what: you can never take your eyes off of Dorothy Dandridge

Even more infuriating than having her voice dubbed, despite the worldwide success of “Carmen Jones” and a historic Oscar nomination Dorothy Dandridge would go NEARLY 3 YEARS without appearing in film again (1957’s “Island in the Sun”-and she’s barely in it!)

Brock Peters as Sergeant Brown. He would later be known for his role as Tom Robinson in “To Kill a Mockingbird”. This was his first film role. He also dubbed singing for his “Carmen Jones” costar Roy Glenn who plays "Rum" Daniels

Dorothy Dandridge was nominated for an Oscar for “Best Actress” for her titular role in “Carmen Jones”. She was the first Black American woman to be nominated for this award. Unfortunately, she lost to Grace Kelly in “The Country Girl”

Actor and later manager to the legendary Ray Charles, Joe Adams as “Husky” Miller. Despite having a decent singing voice (he’d previously worked in radio) he was dubbed by operatic actor and baritone Marvin Hayes

Infuriatingly, our gorgeous and perfectly capable multitalented leads Dorothy Dandridge & Harry Belafonte were both dubbed (by Met Opera singers Marilyn Horn & LeVern Hutcherson, respectively) at the insistence of the studio

Just a head’s up: Use this link (ok.ru/video/882040...) since the film was pulled from InternetArchive at some point. Sorry for the confusion

CARMEN JONES (1954)
My reminder that CARMEN JONES (1954) should be a film name-drop as much as other recognizable, largely well-known, repetitively referenced films are. Not just during Oscar season or BHM, but year-round.
