The Serbian Butcher & more -- Spyros Kalfopoulos with Kaiti Petrakis
Another subtle but wonderful video! Fine stage, great band, beautiful singer, good songs... Plus there's dancing, interesting things happening with the cheery crowd, cutaways to boats and much more. All in all this is a fine use of your precious spare time, even if it does not hit the crazy highs and dismal lows of some of the other featured videos in this blog.
Spyros Kalfopoulos was a composer, actor and musician (and that's about all I could find out). I know even less about Kati Petrakis, except that she is totally awesome!
This seems to be from the 1959 movie I Want a Forceful Man, a title that definitely would not go over well these days. Here's a description from IMDB
Mina is married with Lakis who is too kind and soft,so she tries to make him react somehow, by flirting with another man. His friend Nionios who is a womanizer, advises him to flirt with other women too... Surprisingly, Lakis, who is as meek as a lamb, makes Mina, his wife, furious. And, as a result, unable to cope with his stoic disposition, Mina is two-timing him. When his philandering bosom friend, Nionios, tries to lend a hand by proposing that Lakis should have an affair, Paulina, Nionios' wife, decides to take matters into her own hands and pay her husband back in the same coin. However, what happens if Paulina chooses Lakis as her lover?
Thank goodness my life and relationships are far less chaotic...
