Best Dance Film

[shallwedansu]

OK, my last topic about movies, but what is your favorite dance movie?

Here's a list of dance movies I can think of right now:
Billy Elliot
Center Stage
Dance With Me
Dirty Dancing
Flashdance
Footloose
Mad Hot Ballroom
Saturday Night Fever
Save The Last Dance
Shall We Dance?
Shall We Dansu?
Step Up
Strictly Ballroom
Take The Lead
White Nights

BTW, I'm not including musicals because I think that's a separate category.

My Pick: Shall We Dansu? (hence, where I go my user ID)
I fell head over heels when I saw this movie. I highly recommend watching this. Please, watch the original before the U.S. remake. I thought the remake was decent but not nearly as good as the original.
Wiki page for more info on the movie: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shall_W...3F_(1996_film)

My other favorites: Billy Elliot, Strictly Ballroom, and Mad Hot Ballroom

Dirty Dancing. It's a corny movie, and the lead character's name is "Baby"
But I just love that movie since it's like a comfort food for me. I grew up watching it so many times that I have both video tape and dvd. Whenever I'm in a bad move, I watch it and force my boyfriend lift me

No way I can pick just one, I love dance movies!

Footloose and Dirty Dancing are fond memories from my youth.

Loved Center Stage.

Loved Shall We Dance? the original (haven't seen the American remake with Richard Gere)

If you twisted my arm to choose just one, though, I'd probably go with the quirky but romantic, improbably weird but wonderful

Strictly Ballroom

Nice thread!

Seven Brides For Seven Brothers. I love those dance scenes from that movie.

The Turning Point

Strictly Ballroom is just fantastic. The tongue in cheek, poke fun style was fantastic. The Drah-mah! The Costumes, and actually even the dancing!

It was great - Baz Luhrmann at his best!
