Greece on Film
In 1964, a low budget, black/white film, which had been rejected by all the major
Hollywood studios, was released by 20th Century Fox. Based on the popular novel
by Nikos Kazantzakis, Zorba the Greek became an instant hit, garnering an Academy Award nomination for Anthony Quinn and making its famous soundtrack,
world-famous. This year, the Kyklonas Dancers present “Greece on Film,” a
dance program featuring regional and cultural dances from movies filmed in
Greece, or about Greeks, in honor of the 50th anniversary of Zorba’s release.
You too can “see” Greece without leaving your living room! Check out the
