- Studio-filmed performance of Jose Limon's landmark 1949 ballet. Shot in 16mm Kodachrome, this is an Ektachrome reversal print. Made in 1951 for Brandon Films, available for rental to schools and institutions.
Limon 's masterpiece and indeed one of the very greatest of all modern dances
WOW. Thank you so much for posting this!
Am finally going to be seeing the Limon Company - FINALLY, for the 1st time! (“Better Late Than Never”) @ NJPAC, Newark this weekend. This unbelievably strong, powerful work makes me even more excited! 🙏🏽 ♥️
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. And thank you so much for your enthusiastic comments. Have a great time at NJPAC and enjoy Missa Brevis!
Love this, the great creation of Jose Limón
The original work, as performed on stage, had no voiceover. I feel it is stronger without the narration. Everything one needs to know is communicated with the dance and evocative music.
Oh, agreed. This film was probably distributed through educational sources and the narration added for more explanatory purposes. Still great to see the original cast in color!
rpf16mm Absolutely. I've seen the Limon Company perform this several times, though of course without Mr. Limon (since he died in '72). It is a sign of a great performer that one can still feel his strong presence through the camera lens.
amazing, can i use this quote in my essay?
Agree. Everything is conveyed through movement and music alone. An extraordinary synthesis by which an attentive viewer understands the plot
