Quotes:
Tía Rosario: Lucía still loves José. She was his lover in life, let her be his lover in death, too.Carmelo: What do you mean?
Tía Rosario: Didn't José die defending her honor? If he died for her, it's fitting that she should offer him her love.
Carmelo: Her love?... You mean her life.
Tía Rosario: My son... The happiness of some always comes at the expense of others. That's how life is. You must speak to Lucía. Tell her to go tonight to where José died, where Candela meets the apparition. Talk to Candela. Arrange it with her.
Carmelo: There's no other way?
Tía Rosario: [She shakes her head] You love Candela, don't you?... Talk to Lucía. CONVINCE her!

This is a brilliant film, one of Carlos Saura's best. It is essentially a ballet, laced with gorgeous music and moving photography. I've seen it three times and have enjoyed it more each time.
This isn't a teen flick, of course, and will not appeal to everyone. But for people serious about music, dance, and drama, this shouldn't be missed.
