"The Loves of Carmen" (1948) is a Technicolor film starring Rita Hayworth as the gypsy Carmen and Glenn Ford as her doomed lover Don José. It was directed by Charles Vidor and released by Columbia Pictures. The film was publicized as a dramatic adaptation of the novella "Carmen" by Prosper Mérimée and is otherwise unrelated to Georges Bizet's opera "Carmen".

This was the first film chosen and co-produced by Hayworth's production company, the Beckworth Corporation, which gave her approval over her material and a percentage of the film's profits. As co-producer, Hayworth hired her father, the dancer Eduardo Cansino, to help choreograph the traditional Spanish dances. Also, her uncle José Cansino can be seen as her dance partner in one scene, and her brother Vernon Cansino has a bit part as a soldier.

The musical score of the film was composed by Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco.

Other cinema versions are realized in the Silent Cinema, in 1917 with Pola Negri, and in 1927 with Dolores del Rio.
