I just love this video, same as the old time in Egypt ones.
There is a freshness in the dance and same time so beautiful.

hope you enjoy it

Thanks Maria Aya! I love this lady since I saw her in the Legends dvd... I was looking for her bio, and came up with this other clip (this hasn't been posted here before, I think, or has it?):

YouTube - Zeinat Olwi in a film زينات علوى

There doesn't seem to be much info about Ms. Olwi on the internet, maybe I should try different spellings... still, can anyone here tell a little about her?

(btw

those backbends! Amazing)

that is very nice! And I love the costume, seeing it in black-and-white it looks very cool!

Wonderful video! I wonder when it was filmed. It looked like the 50's or 60's? Her costume was amazing!

Oh, that was wonderful. Thank you for sharing! I'm obsessing over the old movie clips lately -- they just seem so fresh in their simplicity and beauty.
