Chico y Rita

Postby Derbeno » Mon Feb 06, 2012 4:33 am

This absolutely delightful film is posted in full 7 parts on youtube, just follow the links. Music by Bebo Valdes and Yaroldi Abreu playing a mean ol' Chano Pozo both on Congas and very heavy Cuban accent lol

The quality is pixel perfect so you can go full screen and enjoy!!!

Synopsis below:
This beautifully-designed 40s-set animation about Cuban jazz musicians who head from Havana to New York is a wonderfully passionate film. The great names of both Cuban and American jazz are invoked, and Chico and Rita's tragicomic love story meshes very pleasingly with this musical backdrop.
