Plot Summary
Maureen O'Hara as the spoiled, rich, American preditor
who falls head-over-heels for the brooding, tormented,
about-to-retire matador, Luis Santos (Anthony Quinn)
who has inexplicably run away prior to a corrida that was
to occasion the "alternativa" of a young, up-and-coming bullfighter (Manuel Rojas).
The mystery is solved 94 minutes later, after Maureen has conquered
Tony and Tony has saved Marueen's life by caping a toro bravo
with his plaid horse blanket.
Written by Stanley Conrad

User Review

The matador and the Virgin,
Author: Christopher Mulrooney from Los Angeles
A matador goes to the Virgin in existential anguish. The drawing of the bulls (led by "jezebels" into isolating stalls) is filmed twice at two angles, to cinch the deal. Boetticher's elegant, geometric décor sets off his matador like a votive flame. The beauty of Mexico is seen in swift cutting as backgrounds, from the Toreo to hacienda-hotels and finally to the bare countryside, before the return.

The brief record of a flamenco dance given by Boetticher is of a rare sinuous type, all cricket-castanets and slow undulations.

Filmed in Mexico, this film was not loved by critics or by the Mexican audience during the filming of bull ... without killing!

After these beautiful photos, a short video (http://www.archive-host.com/video.php?id=5ba964cd95c42273e0eb0b0d54a57774cd20c 6c1.mp4) ...
