the milky white skin of the female lead almost attoned for it.
Tango Lesson? More like bondage lesson. Hard to watch such an unpleasant woman for very long.

Olrando was a gorgeous and entertaining package. I loved the humor and, particularly, the attention to historical detail in each shot. It was nominated for two Oscars: art design and costumes. I thought it should have been up for cinematography as well.
Now, Tango was extremely self-indulgent since Potter was living with the male lead at the time. I think she also wanted to show off as an aging broad who dance dance the tango so well.
Beyond Orlando, she is a hard recommendation due to the artsy nature of her work.
