You sound so surprised. I guess I don't blame you, a lot of these old movies didn't hire real dancers. But Neja Ates was a real Turkish Oriental dancer.

I like how the man couldn't stop his shoulder from "dancing". Too cute!

I do hope this footage of Nejla puts paid once and for all to all this nonsense about belly dancers needing to be voluptuous and tall.

word.

Cute Costume. I agree.

She's darling, and Vincent Price is surprisingly hot in a turban!
