So many movies over the years have had dancing sequences. Look at the old movies like West Side Story and the Little Colonel with Bojangles and Shirley Temple. And who can forget Dorothy dancing her way through The Wizard of Oz? Or the dances in The Sound of Music or Mary Poppins or My Fair Lady? Later, the dances grew more erotic like Flashdance and Dirty Dancing. Why today, you even have all the animated characters doing a great jig! From The Jungle Book to the Shrek series, dance has become part and parcel of most animated movies.
It’s always been great to watch ballroom dancing. The great thing about the movies is that they have preserved the different dances and styles of ballroom dance shoes and clothing or the different ways of doing certain dancing on celluloid so people can watch and enjoy them for years to come.
