Interesting Vid: The Men Who Dance the Giglio


This is a trailer recently posted on YouTube for a film about the Giglio Festival in Williamsburg. It was produced in 1995, and if you go over to the folkstreams.net site, you can download it in MPEG-4 or Real Media formats to watch in its entirety. It's an interesting look at an original Brooklyn tradition. By the way, only 102 day, eight hours, 11 minutes and 46 seconds (as of 8:49 this morning) until this year's Giglio Festival, which starts on July 5. For detail's go over to the Our Lady of Mount Carmel Feast site.
