Takamine Hideko, Carmen in Color, & Carmen Sequel

[mccaskem at georgetown.edu]

There's a nice French DVD, Carmen revient au pays, with French subs and a full 
commentary by Charles Tesson plus an 18 min. interview with Kinoshita, part of 
the set 6 Films de Keisuke Kinoshita/Coffret Kinoshita Keisuke, available from 
Amazon.fr. Takamine is truly quite glamorous.

There's also a sequel, Carmen Falls in Love/Karumen junjo su (1952), on a 
Japanese DVD in Set 3 of Kinoshita's Collected Films, Shochiku DA-0553-5. I 
haven't watched it yet, but it may be in B&W, since the stills on the case and 
DVD are all B&W.
