Carmen Jones (1954)


“Otto Preminger has transferred it to the screen with taste and imagination in an opulent production."
- Variety


“The best reason to revisit CARMEN JONES lies in Dorothy Dandridge's electrifying performance, which saw her become the first African-American to be nominated for a Best Actress Oscar.”
- Tom Dawson, BBC.com



SYNOPSIS: A star-studded cast screen version of the electrifying musical "Carmen Jones," which adapted Bizet's opera Carmen for an African-American cast. A soldier falls for Carmen (DorothyDandridge), a seductive factory worker. The lovers flee after the soldier kills his sergeant, but Carmen's taunting faithlessness drives her lover to a crime of passion.
