Love this movie

Rating: 10/10 (8 June 2020)

I absolutely love this movie! It chronicles the story of a young women encouraging her friends to try and succeed (or fail) at their passions while she waits on the sideline for her big chance, afraid to take the plunge at her own dream.
Alex is a beautiful woman who works in a steel mill by day, but at night dances which is her true passion. She longs to be a professional dancer and pursue her dreams of being on stage but is too afraid to go out and get it. She is a loyal friend and encourages her pals to go out and give it their all while she stays stagnant.
In pure 80's fashion, the movie plot isn't a masterpiece (imagine how they remade footloose in the 2000's and it seemed odd and very out of place) but I find it to be genuine and kinda heartfelt as you root for Alex throughout the film and watch her pick up her friends to dust them back off so they can get "back on the horse" so to speak. I recommend this movie to everyone and anyone, although you have to keep in mind the timeframe in which is was made. It's a great movie...but it's not all that good.
