I'm not surprised the clip I could find was not the "dance of salome" is better known as "the dance of the seven veils". It was so racy the opera was banned many places. Because the lead soprano did a dance wearing nothing but seven veils.
My ex should have been pro opera, only she aged out first.
If you haven't been to Death Valley I recommend it. It's one of those really unique places in the country. It was a fun trip other than the flat tire, but that was worth the risk too.
@olav The Death Valley automatically reminds me of Greed (USA, 1924) which was filmed there. It was a really distinctive landscape for the film and fit into the plot very well.
@olav It's a nice film and the landscape gives a good input into the plot. When I watched Greed I divided the film into four sessions of one hour each and started watching on a Monday and finished on a Thursday. Back then, sitting down for four hours watching something felt too long. If it was nowadays I'd divided the film in two sessions of two hours each one.
