A young boy wishing to follow in his father’s footsteps as a bullfighter moves to Madrid to pursue his dream. When he returns to his hometown many years later as a success, he marries his sweetheart, but is tempted by a seductive socialite. Based on the 1908 novel “Sangre y arena” by Vicente Blasco Ibáñez., Based on the novel by Vincente Blasco Ibanez, Blood and Sand is the beautifully rendered story of the rise and fall of a young, cocksure Spanish bullfighter, played by Tyrone Power. Working his way slowly up the ladder to success, Power achieves fame when he is praised to skies by fatuous, fickle critic Laird Cregar. A country boy at heart, Power finds himself way over his head with sophisticates, and is soon torn between his pious and faithful wife Linda Darnell and sexy, mercenary Rita Hayworth. It is Darnell, however, who comforts Power after his final, fatal goring in the bull ring. The film’s best scenes depict the curious combination of horror and fascination with which bullfighting aficionados treat this most barbaric of “sports.” Blood and Sand was previously filmed in 1922 with Rudolph Valentino; a Valentino contemporary, Alla Nazimova, plays Power’s mother in the remakes. Portions of this film turned up as stock footage in the 1945 Laurel and Hardy comedy The Bullfighters., Romantic drama starring Tryone Power as a bullfighter caught between the two women he loves.
