This movie has many different dances from children, basic and performance level. Fascinating to watch. The songs are beautiful, the art is excellent.

Certainly one of the best films portraying the dance and it's complexity as well as a good story.

This is a an absolute feast of music and dance. I am not going to go on about the artistic side of the movie itself, cinematography and etc. as personal choices might differ there, but I will say that "if" you like Tango music and/or dance, DO NOT miss on this movie!! All dance scenes are absolutely beautiful.. And the music is very authentic and played by the masters (you will get to see them play), some live recorded during the movie, all just amazing!

I had a rather elaborate review in mind before looking over those already filed. Obviously the only thing I can add to all of that is that I too received one of those DVDs with the Director's Commentary locked on, overriding the normal sound track. The special features menu provides buttons for turning commentaries on & off, but the links don't work on my copy. It would seem that when you order this DVD, you may or may not get one with commentaries locked on. Good luck.

I've been dancing and performing Argentine Tango for 5 years now. This movie is inspirational and entertaining. I've met a few folks who have several parts in the film and the level of skill and passion they possess is true to the heart of Tango. I'm not sure why Sally Potter has not transferred her film "The Tango Lesson" to DVD, what's up with that? VHS only? This should be in everyone's library if your a beginner or advanced dancer a must see. LIBRA TANGO!
