Orlando's Pavanne

I loved this movie ("Orlando") so much, that I 'made' everyone I could get hold of watch it - especially when it was still in theaters, though I continued on with VHS and DVD to be pleasantly pleading.

I'm not proud of it, but I don't get teased as much by loved ones for "Orlando" as I regularly get teased for suggesting "The Black Robe" way back in the day. Interestingly, the same actor is in both films.

I hope I've learned my lesson.

It's odd, as I'm not usually in the recommending business, but I seem to be doing it a lot on here. I guess blogging brings out the brute in me.

I do love this version of "Pavanne" the best as the drums really add something of the times to it (in the movie, I mean). I wish I could've embedded the actual dance scene from the film, but this clip only has a slide show effect. It's actually not as bad as some, and better than most... especially if you relax and loosen your eyeballs a bit. Wait! not THAT much. They should continue to be inserted.  ;)
