Thread: Can you ID Samia Gamal Movies?

I'd like to know what movie the following two clips are from. If you know the song names that would be very helpful too. Thanks in advance if you know!

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Te4dk9G6fD4]YouTube - Legend Samia Gamal[/ame]

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FtLdKA-Jj4]YouTube - Ra'asa Samia Gamal سامية جمال[/ame]

ok I found the second one: the second man ( el ragol el sany )

so just the first one if you know it thanks!

Oo, I'll have a look at the clips when I get home from work tonight. I have a DVD with all kinds of Samia footage that lists the movie and music used.

I love that first clip.

Which DVD is that?

I'm guessing, but maybe the first clip is from "A Glass and A Cigarette"(don't remember the Arabic title). It looks like the same set from a clip I have.....but she looks blonde in your clip! Love it :)

No, I have the movie Glass and a Cigarette on DVD, and that first clip doesn't appear in it. I agree the set on this clip looks similar to the set on one of the scenes in the movie, but Glass and a Cigarette doesn't have any of those funny little cartoon images.

oooh i looooove the song in the second clip

It's 'the fabulous Samia Gamal' from the Belly dance classics series by Arab film distribution. Checked it out today and that first clip is not on it unfortunately.

To help you out, I know the movie is co-starred by Shadia, a Egyptian singer/actress. That might help you narrow done things.

I've been hiding under a rock :( No actually, I've sort of taken a break from all things belly dance but I'm back!!! Mashallah :)

Thanks Mark that did help. I think it might be:

"Zoqaq El-Madaq" - "Midaq Alley" (1963), starring Shadia, Samia Gamal

yep, verified it, that's it. Yay!
