Linked by a contributor, Anna Caterina Antonacci plays Carmen in this French stage production of the classic opera. In this extended clip, Carmen is arrested after attacking a woman with a knife and defying the commander's orders to answer his questions, and so has her hands tied behind her back. She eventually plies her lone captor with her feminine wiles to loosen the ropes since they hurt and then escapes as she's carted off to the stockade. The soldier, José is arrested for dereliction of duty.
