Movie Reviews of A Time for Dancing
Movie Review: An inspiring and, yes, sad movie
Summary: 5 Stars
Honestly, the only reason I bought this movie was because of Larisa Oleynik. Being a longtime fan, I have to say that I was thrilled to see her back acting, and I was pleasantly surprised and quite glad that she did such a great movie as this... And she did an amazing job. It is a very emotional, and somewhat depressing movie... if you let it be. In the moment of being about to lose virtualy everything, she presses on and makes the most of what time she has left. I found it to be incredibly inspiring, with a great message of how it's better to fully live and enjoy what life you have left than suffer excruciating pain to merely allow you to get by.
I recommend this movie, not as a dance movie, although it is obviously filled w/ great dance scenes, but as a good movie in general...
Summary of A Time for Dancing
United Kingdom released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player. You need multi-region PAL/NTSC DVD player to view it in USA/Canada: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), SPECIAL FEATURES: Interactive Menu, Photo Gallery, Scene Access, SYNOPSIS: In some ways, Sam and Jules couldn't be more different. Sam, the only child of a hard working single mom, has somewhat of a dark outlook on life. It is hard to see the world through rose-colored glasses when you have to work an after school job at a food stand called Burgatory. On the other hand, Jules is full of hope and joy. All she ever wanted to do is dance. Her parents, her younger brother, and her best friend Sam, all know her life revolves around dancing. Her obsession with the dancing manifests itself within a line from the quintessential ballet film,The Red Shoes. After hearing "A dancer who relies on the comfort of human love will never be a great dancer," she immediately breaks up with her boyfriend Eli. Jules has one goal in mind, to attend Juilliard and study dance when she graduates high school. Jules spends all of her energy and free time in the studio thriving on the arduous trainingroutine she has undertaken. Sam on the other hand does not always make it to dance class on time, or take it seriously once she is there.With hundreds set to audition and only a handful of slots, Jules' path to Julliard is, in her mind, the most difficult challenge she has faced. Continuously rehearsing her audition piece with her dance teacher and mentor, Linda, Jules is suddenly slowed. A nagging pain in her hip threatens to tear the fabric of all she has worked for. She continues to dance nonetheless with the help of a chiropractor and herbal ointments. Jules is diagnosed with an illness that could threaten not only her aspirations to dance, but her life as well. ...A Time for DancingSimilar DVD Movies
