The last time I was in Yegen was in 2011. Other than some paving on the narrow streets, the same tranquil ambiance existed. The fountain in the square was exactly the same as pictured in the video.
@@CultureInjection Thank you so much for doing this. I have loved the book, and tonight will settle down with a rough red to watch it all. Thanks again.
Curiosa la psicología de los extranjeros cuando vienen al sur de España a intentar explicar la vida. Debetía hacerse un estudio antropológico de estos curiosos extranjeros que padecen de Españomania.
Creo que el sur de España es atractivo para los extranjeros que buscan una vida tranquila. Las Alpujarras tienen la capacidad de capturar el corazón. [Translation] I think the south of Spain is attractive to foreigners looking for a tranquil life. The Alpujarras have the ability to capture the heart.
Muchas gracias por subirlo.
I stayed in a small village in granada in 1974. This film is exactly like i remember it being.

Loved the book and film
Me too. I found the original video in 3 parts. I combined them to make one complete record of a time long gone.

I lived in Yegen for a while back in 2006. Lovely village although the view was being blighted by the encroaching greenhouses.
I wonder what year this was made?
Gerald Brenan was born in 1894. The original video was made when he was 81 so the year must have been 1975.
It was filmed in 1973, broadcast by BBC & TVE in 1974
I wonder who the young English lady is in the video and whether she actually stayed?

This is total tosh
Glad you liked it.
Be quiet, crone.
Why would you say that?
