The pace and tone were both so uneven that instead of eliciting numerous emotion- al responses, it left me feeling completely empty and indifferent. The majority of the blame can be placed on the threadbare love story that is intend- ed to provide some continuity and rationale for the overly abundant dance sequences. The story centers around Mario Suarez (Miguel Angel Sola), a filmmaker on a quest to create the ultimate tango film. He uses tango music for inspiration and attempts to find a narrative arc to hold it all "I together. (How ironic that the actual film @ CD fails in this very respect.)

Strange- ly enough, and completely contrary to this review, the film has actually been nominat- ed for this 'year's Best Foreign Language Film. (Let's just hope Central Station gets what it deserves this Sunday night). The cinematography is often brilliant, with many mixtures of media that create a unique look and overall special effect. The silhouetted scenes and close-ups of the dancers' feet showcase the grace and ele- gance of the tango along with the true skill and dexterity involved.
