A sweeping melodrama in which Gardel’s beloved, played by Rosita Moreno, dies — giving rise to one of his most profound performances: “Sus ojos se cerraron”, co-written with Alfredo Le Pera. He also sings “Volver”, “Guitarra mía”, and the film’s title song. A curious historical note: a young Astor Piazzolla appears briefly in the film as a newspaper boy. Paramount production shot at Kaufman Astoria Studios in New York. Join us for an unforgettable movie night!
