I wanted to share with you one of my favorite dance movies – The Company. I love it for it’s rich performance footage and day-in-the life feel. It’s low on plot, but high on spectacular dancing and choreography. Just for your information, the movie, featuring Neve Campbell and directed by Robert Altman, is rated PG-13 with some nudity in dressing-room scenes.

Here is a wonderful review of the movie.

It’s part of a series entitled Invitation to the Dance Movie Blogathon which features more great reviews and clips of dance movies. I read and watched YouTube clips of movies I had never seen before! Definitely worth checking out.

Thanks so much for enjoying the blogathon and linking us. It’s very gratifying to have a dancer comment favorably – dancing is exactly what I wanted to honor and expose to larger audiences.

My name is Nichelle Strzepek and I started this site in 2008 after the birth of my son. There's more to that story, but before the stay-home mom/blogging gig, I spent over 16 years teaching dance in private studios, community programs, and at a public university. My enthusiasm for dance training and education is poured into this blog daily.
