The Bullfighter and the Lady

Bullfighter and the Lady is a 1951 drama film directed and written by Budd Boetticher. Filmed on location in Mexico, the film focused on the realities of the dangerous sport of bullfighting. During production, one stunt man died. Boetticher, who had experience in bullfighting, used a semidocumentary approach in filming the sport and the lives of matadors.

Bullfighter earned Boetticher his only Academy Award nomination, for Best Story, which he shared with cowriter Ray Nazarro. Together with Seven Men from Now, Boetticher regarded Bullfighter as one of the two best films I ever made. 1The complete 124 minute version of the The Bullfighter and the Lady was released on DVD and Bluray Disc on July 30, 2013. ........
