Review of Save the Last Dance (2001) by Bsh N — 21 Jan 2014
Stunning movie. Have watched this one a few times over the years, and I especially like dance movies. This one has a good story outside the dancing, being about an aspiring ballerina whose mother dies, leaving her to live with her father she barely knows.
He lives in a mostly black neighborhood so a lot of this is about her struggles to fit in as virtually the only white girl in school. There's a lot to say about racism and I think this movie does quite a nice job.
Julia is lovely and the relationship between her and the brother of her new friend is believable. You really hope to see it work out for them.
