Patricio et al.,

The joke is that Antonio Cervila Jr. (a.k.a. 'Junior') IS that actor with
the knife! ;-) And I agree with you that the performance was chilling.

Probably correct that this version is 'Hernando's Hideaway'...
Aron refers to another version that was an instrumental. THAT version
is probably Xavier Cugat's mambo interpretation of Cumparsita. I agree
that it is brilliant. A Google search will return lots of hits for those
who want to follow up.

Et al, maybe, but Patricio probably does not need his own jokes explained to
him.
