You know what?
I may have shared this before.
But you know what … I have had an incredibly long day so I’m just going to share it again. This is from the 1960 film, The Vampire and the Ballerina.
Enjoy!
And, just because I love you, here’s an extra bonus dance scene from Lucio Fulci’s 1984 film Murderrock!
Tonight’s dance scene that I love comes from a 1970 film that has many names. Some people known at Sign of Aquarius. Some people know it as Love Commune. However, it’s best known as Ghetto Freaks! Watch the scene below and read my review of Ghetto Freaks by clicking here!
And, as a special bonus, here’s the famous acid trip scene from Sign of Aquarius/Love Commune/Ghetto Freaks! The acid trip scene is NSFW but, then again, you’re probably not at work right now.
(Or maybe you are at work. But you’re a rebel, right? Why not invite your boss to come watch with you?)
Tonight’s dance scene that I love comes from the 2001 film, Mulholland Drive. In fact, it’s the very first scene from that surreal masterpiece.
Trust David Lynch to make the jitterbug seem menacing.
So, let’s be honest.
Times are dark.
People are angry.
The future, we are told, is bleak.
It’s easy to get down and feel sad and defeated.
But fear not! I’m here to cheer you up, every night this week! From today until next Sunday, I will be sharing some of my favorite dance scenes!
Let’s start things off with this deleted scene from the 2011 film, Sucker Punch!
As proof that any movie — regardless of genre, storyline, or budget — has room for a dance number, check out this dance scene that I love from Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter!
Here’s hoping that everyone’s having a wonderful Crazy Ralph Day!
In honor of Fred Astaire’s birthday, here are two scenes featuring Fred and Cyd Charisse from the 1953 film, The Band Wagon!
I’ve never actually seen the 1987 film Slaughterhouse Rock. I’ve just seen the trailer included in a few compilations and, thanks to YouTube, I’ve seen the scene below. The only context that I can give for this scene is what I read on Wikipedia.
Apparently, in this scene, a ghost played by the great choreographer Toni Basil does a dance that gives the main character’s spirit the ability to roam free of his physical body. And, during the dance, we see a lot of earlier scenes from the movie. Or something like that. I don’t know. I just like the scene because of the music and Toni Basil.
I’ve always felt that dancing can take you into a spiritual realm of existence. This scene proves my point.
I love this scene but I have to admit that my heart breaks a little whenever I hear the crowd booing Prokofiev.
I love Audrey Hepburn! The dance starts 3:07 into the video.
I know next to nothing about the 1983 film Uncommon Valor, beyond what I read on Wikipedia and the imdb. (It’s an action film. Shit gets blown up.) But, a few days ago, I came across the end credits on Movies TV and I quickly fell in love with the little dance that ends the film.
The dancer, by the way, is a gentleman named Randall “Tex” Cobb, who was apparently a former boxer and who played the Warthog from Hell in Raising Arizona.
