like stop fucking complaining! it's a movie version of a broadway show yeah sooo like some of the songs were replaced for the FILM VERSION! get the fuck over it !
i love everything on this part, the lyrics of the song, the melody, the dance, the emotion conveyed on the dance and the way she conveys it. everything is great!
HAHAH!!! they cut off her voice too late at the end of the number! this movie is horrendous... who ever thought a stage musical about life on the stage would be a good movie? ugh *vomit*
OMG! I am reading where Alyson Reed (Cassie) playes Mrs. Darbus in the High School Musical movies and you guys are knocking her for it... UHHHHH Hello!!!!!!! How the hell do you think you are gonna get parents of the children who want to watch those movies over and over and over again like kids like to do unless you have someone in those movies who the parents can recognize... WOW! Some people are so slow in the head sometimes!
I know I will get a lot of hate for saying this but I grew up on the movie way before I saw the stage play... and I love this movie. It's the reason why I really wanted to become a dancer and to do musical theater:-) what you must remember is that it's not the stage version... LA;-) stay SWEET***
Because to win an Oscar for best song in a musical [or any movie for that mater] , you have to have a completely original song and not one that has been on the stage. I guess this is one they decided to change and submit; I don't think they won the Oscar for best song though. It's a pity too, because I like this scene. I saw the stage production in 1982/83 and I don't remember much about it. But, I'm 4'10" and I hate that they left that song out of the movie. BOO-HOO :-)
@gatorguts no the stage production was out for about ten years before this movie was made... They changed this song frm the orginal stage song, which is called "The Music and the Mirror"
This image is so choppy, what's up with that?? Doesn't make her dancing any better. The best part of the song is the part when she's not singing, and shows her multiple images in the mirrors. That was great directing! Yey Broadway!!
Singing was bad! They should have stayed with "the music and the mirror" and the dancing was not great, only Ok. I quickly got over her flopping up that LEFT leg evey five minutes LOL!
I hate this song so much..... most of the lyrics in this song are the same ones from "The Music and the Mirror" I wish they would've just did that song instead of this crappy one.
I know! This movie did NO justice to the show, they completly ruined it! The montage and the music and the mirror is like the WHOLE show! It's about passion for something you love to do and the movie didn't really capture that message.
hello if i sound rude i apoligize ive been on this computer allday if your interested i saw this movie when i was roundabout ten and i still know the dance routine it was put together well by her emotions to it meaning she moved to her abilities she is to good ha
I fell in love with This Cassie before you all were probably born. She is one of the reasons you all even know this as a stage production. Save the snobbishness-- stage work is neither better or worse, just different. This scene rocks, and Alison michael douglas are hot!! Michael Bennett is was probably thrilled that his work was seen and appreciated by the number of people who saw this version in the movie theatres. I've seen others-- this still rocks!!!
I know I was replying to an earlier comment which said that the movie is what made the play popular :P. I hate the movie. I don't count it as A Chorus Line because it totally sucks. The play is AWESOME though.
once again, notice the space between the notes, only the notes are gestures and movements of the dancer, it is still music ... but instead of a guitar the instrument is the body ... but in the expression of u, whether it's through a piano, a guitar, drums, dance, voice, drawing, painting, running, swimming ... the beauty is u letting your heart flow, and flow with all u have inside ...
They usually write a new song for a movie adaptation because old songs cannot be considered for an academy award for best song. i actually really liked the move, def different persoective from the show which is interesting and i think alyson makes a great cassidy shame she didnt sing music and the mirror.
When a chorus line came out onstage it beat Chicago hands down (out the same year) as a movie Chicago works better.
I'm sorry, I have not seen the movie, but every clip I have seen just makes me laugh. The movie seems to do know justice to the musical. Some things are just not meant for film
haha yeah maybe they're even the same character! Like after this, Cassie and Zach didn't work out and she married some guy named Darbus and went to teach at a high school in Utah
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
awful, awful, awful. this movie, even if it were to stand on its own, is one of the biggest letdowns in film history. (sir richard attenborough, i hope your death was long, and i hope it hurt.)
I gotta say the song has its high points but i like the lyrics from Music and the Mirror better. But this song's music and the dancing far surpass music and the mirror.
I have to disagree. I thought the "Music and Mirror" was a far more passionate metaphor for the stage experience.
"Let Me Dance for You" has "showstopper" written all over it, but it is too canned and lacks the presence of the stage show numbers. I feel the same way about the montages being omitted for "Surpise."
if i could give it 10 stars id give it ten.... if i could give it 20 id give it 20 if i could give it 100 id give it 100 I LOVE THIS DANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!! i really do. aghhhhh!!!!
fantastic!!!! I would definitely dance with her. I never watched the original musical. And I don´t want to, because I don´t think it can top the film.
i know what you mean. i had this on tape somewhere and i have alot of tapes. i was checking youtube and finally its on. THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE ITT!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Disgusting. On every level. Richard Attenborough should be rotting in hell right now for this monstrosity. Why he removed "The Music and the Mirror" and put this awful song (not to mention the vile choreography that goes along with it) in its place is beyond any and all logic. A travesty.
