Death Proof, de Quentin Tarantino, é um dos dois filmes de Grindhouse, o outro é o Planet Terror, de Robert Rodriguez, dos quais já falei em posts anteriores, e dos quais fiquei fã. :)
Uma das melhores cenas do filme, é a dança que a Arlene/Butterfly (Vanessa Ferlito) faz para o Stuntman Mike (Kurt Russel).
Como todo o bom fã, estive ontem a fazer a minha própria versão da cena, que é o primeiro video deste post. O segundo vídeo tem a cena completa, que alguém já enviou para o Youtube, poupando-me esse trabalho. :)
E no fim do post, a letra da fantástica canção que acompanha a dança sensual do filme, e que é "Down in Mexico", de "The Coasters".
Alguns pormenores a notar, na cena da dança, são por exemplo, a presença de Rose McGowan, a mulher "sem-perna", do Planet Terror, que é a loiraça sentada ao balcão, do lado esquerdo; e as "Crazy Babby-sittter twins", também do Planet Terror, em pé ao fundo, lado direito.
Down in Mexicali
There's a crazy little place that I know
Where the drinks are hotter than the chili sauce
And the boss is a cat named Joe
He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
Well, the first time that I saw him
He was sittin' on a piano stool
I said "Tell me dad, when does the fun begin?"
He just winked his eye and said "Man, be cool."
He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
All of a sudden in walks this chick
Joe starts playing on a Latin kick
Around her waist she wore three fishnets
She started dancin' with the castanets
I didn't know just what to expect
She threw her arms around my neck
We started dancin' all around the floor
And then she did a dance I never saw before.
So if you're south of the border
I mean down in Mexico
And you wanna get straight,
Man, don't hesitate
Just look up a cat named Joe.
He wears a red bandana, plays a blues pianna
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
He wears a purple sash, and a black moustache
In a honky-tonk, down in Mexico
