Los Almendros-Plaza Nueva

could someone who's seen the film or knows alot of nino josele's stuff help me with this. nino josele is credited with the music for the film.

i saw this little film Los Almendros-Plaza Nueva last week in the univeristy language section(watched vengo, el amor brujo, carmen and tow versions of lorcas blood wedding), its about 25 mins long but its a good little short film.its about a bus driver who does the routes going through the gitano neighbourhood's in almeria.

there is a rumba on the closing credits and i was wondering if anyone here knows the name of it or which album its on?

Yes! I saw that a while back. It's a great wee movie. The driver is brilliant....!
Sorry, I don't know the answer to your question.

Hi Henry
I havent seen the movie and I cant find the credits clip on youtube but Niño Josele has only done a few albums. Which do you have? I can eliminate those and send you rumba soundbites from the others.

Absolutely brilliant in all regards. One of the best shorts I've ever seen, and I read that the actors are all people who actually live in that area and that none are professionals. I think the driver might have been, though.

Anyway, I've got a copy and there's no mention of the music aside from the credits: "Music" for Niño Josele and "Artistic Musical Supervision" for his father. That bit at the end isn't a rumba. Are you sure you haven't confused this film with one of the others?
