“Carmen Jones (1954)” Black Framed Print

Framed Print with Standard Black Frame entitled ‘Carmen Jones (1954)’. Bizet’s tale of fickle femme fatale Carmen heads South with an all black cast and new lyrics by Hammerstein II. Soldier Belafonte falls big time for factory working belle Dandridge during the war, and runs off with miss thang after he kills his C.O. and quits the army. Tired of prettyboy Belafonte, Dandridge’s eye wanders upon prize pugilist Escamillo, inspiring ex-soldier beau to wring her throaty little neck. Film debuts of Carroll and Peters. More than a little racist undertone to the direction. Actors’ singing is dubbed. Multiple sizes available. Primary colors within this image include: Black, White, Dark Red, Gray. Made in USA. Satisfaction guaranteed. Inks used are latex-based and designed to last.
