A film you would enjoy on a warm weekend!

A good story, A good direction, A good chemistry between each charecter is what you look forward to in films first and "Shall we dance" has it all. A warm hearted story with a wonderfull star cast. Richard Gere has always been one of my favourate actors and this is probably one of his best performences ever. Jennifer Lopez, well what can I say, truely unique performence by her, she was very adorable in the whole film and brings perfection to the charecter played by her. Each and every individual in the film delivers a good performence, its one of the best warm films I have come across. The Dvd wont dissapoint you in either way, the quality and sound are terrefic and there are good special features like 'Behind the scenes' etc.

great

If you like dancing, and you like romance with self discovery, this films for you. I often review "Susan's" characters analogy why people get married. It's one of my favorite quotes. good film.

Be this alive and other thoughts on the movie

Richard Gere plays a married man named John Clark, a lawyer, whose ashamed because he has it all and still isn't happy. He enrolls at a dance school named Miss Mitzi's after seeing a beautiful dancer named Paulina staring out a window while riding home on a train.

Something in his sadness connects him to her and he decides to go there to meet her and hope that she can bring him through his pain. I'm a little biased because I'll admit that I haven't seen the Japanese version but what I loved about this movie were the characters and the music.

I thought this was one of Jennifer Lopez's best roles. Paulina is beautiful and yet there is an understated vulnerability to her that makes her connection with Richard Gere all the more believable and even dangerous. But the outcome isn't what I was expecting based on the chemistry. I also enjoyed the fine supporting roles of Lisa Ann Walter as Bobbie, Omar Miller as Vern, Bobby Cannavale as Chic and Stanley Tucci as Link. Susan Sarandon was magical as always. The characters are a rainbow coalition of outcasts and yet, it works in its own way. Each of them are searching for something and they find it amongst themselves and become a family.

Also, what I loved about the movie is the music. There are not too many movies that can make me a fan of salsa dancing but this is one of them.
The music will have you dancing and embracing the happy moments of life and dancing and singing along. Each song is strategically placed in a different part of the movie in order to invoke a certain emotion and it works! I can't understand why this movie didn't do better at the box office so I'm going to blame it on the ever-worsening economy.

It's one of those movies that it is simply magical and a wonderful treat for anyone who believes in romance! A must see movie!

Shall We Dance

Enjoyed this CD. Good story about Saranden [sic] and her naivette that her husband was "dancing,". She suspected an affair and hired a detective. Some comical scenes. Very good movie.

PETER CHELSOM, OPUS 6

**1/2 2004. Directed by Peter Chelsom. Average Hollywood gauged product about a man who discovers that he likes to dance. No artistic ambition here, just a camera that films Richard Gere, Jennifer Lopez and Susan Sarandon as if they were passing in front of the camera of your cell phone. The definitive movie about ballroom dancing still is Australian director Baz Luhrmann's Strictly Ballroom. This one is already forgotten.
