Carmen is lust ..pure and simple. ( and the dark places lust can lead to when it takes over )... There are many brief body positions that portray this admirably in what we've seen. What I love is that it's all in the choreo / body movement..no grotesque mugging or mid-ice writhing.
I fully expect this Carmen to be fabulous , maybe even become the one all others are compared to.
I finally got to watch the practice video (earlier on this thread), and I'm thrilled with it. If it looks this good in practice, it's going to be boffo in competition.
Between these two and Meryl and Charlie, it's going to be greed heaven for fans of either or both (like extra-greedy me). It's wonderful living in a golden age of ice dancing.
