Feel good movie which makes you wanna swing!
Still waiting for that Hollywood non documentary movie about the roots of Lindy Hop with a great story (about Franky) and a lot of dance in it. Why isn’t this here yet still?This documentary movie really portraits how most (lindy hop) swing dancers feel! It makes me wanna dance, it makes me feeling good, it makes me want to dress up vintage style and it makes me want to see more new movies about swing dance! Please someone, make that Hollywood movie! Waiting for years now. (And yes I have seen all the existing other movies like Swing Kids).
In the mean time, enjoy Alive and Kicking and start dancing if you aren’t yet. I watch it once every year since it is out ????
Stompin’ at The Savoy!!
Now THIS was just a whole lot of fun. So much, in fact, that I have already watched this movie four times in less than 24 hours!!!“Alive and Kicking” is the story about the Lindy Hop, Big Band music, and just having a ton of fun! If you do not know what the Lindy Hop is, I suggest you look it up. What started in the lat 20s in Harlem, NYC. It was prominent through the 40s, and then it suddenly died. Different reasons are explained for its then demise. I sure am glad people are trying to “kick” it back!
This story follows several story lines of both individual and couple dancers. They LIVE to dance. They dance because of the feeling it gives them. Having grown up around “Big Band” music, I can understand why they wanted to dance. You just cannot listen to this music without it having a huge AFFECT on your mind, body, and even your soul.
The dancing is nothing short of phenomenal. I could watch people dance like this for days on end and never be bored. The movie takes you through many competitions, and it is the Lindy Hop international competition where the dancing completely blew me away. Where today’s kids think if you stand on dance floor and grind yourself against one another you are dancing (actually that’s called frottage), this movie demonstrates the pure joy it is to connect with someone on the dance floor.
Very nice and very refreshing, “Alive and Kicking” gets 10 HUGE kicks from me. Unrated, but contains a little salty language and brief nudity, this is for the dancer in ALL our souls!
