Summary
  1. Unedited footage recorded for the documentary Limón: a life beyond words. Peter Limón (b. 1924), the youngest brother of José Limón (1908-1972), shares his memories of José, whom the family nicknamed Pepe. He discusses the care José gave his younger siblings after their mother's death; the correct Spanish spoken by José and his father; his father's profession of musician and music copyist, which was not financially rewarding; his impressions of José as a dancer; his and his family's military service during World War II; his father's ethnic background; his family's distaste for organized religion; the lessons of privation and discipline they learned in childhood, which strengthened them during the war and the Depression; his sister Nana, who knew José best and shared his artistic leanings; José's emotional reticence; his impressions of José's wife Pauline Lawrence. The tape also contains ca. 6 min. of footage of family photographs, including a b&w headshot of José Limón.
