Viewing Notes

A dance movie I hadn’t seen until now. And a Potier film! This movie couldn’t be any more 80s than it is. It’s far from perfect, though, which is why it’s likely fallen into obscurity. It’s never super funny and the dance scenes aren’t that great. Still, entertaining for what it is and worth seeing if you’re a fan of this style of movie, which I am.
