Another in my biweekly series on adaptations of Carmen. This scene is from the 1954 film Carmen Jones, which resets the Carmen story in North Carolina during WWII. Oscar Hammerstein II created a new book for Georges Bizet's music: brilliant. It's darker than his work with Richard Rodgers. Here Dorothy Dandridge sings "Dat's Love" (actually dubbed by Marilyn Horne) to the tune of Bizet's Habanera.
