On Thursday 27th of January 2022 I watched a old 90s film called Strictly Ballroom which is all about a dancer called Scott Hastings who once was a champion caliber ballroom dancer until he started dancing his own steps. Fran who is a beginner dancer and a bit of an ugly ducky who has the audacity to ask to be Scott's partner after his unorthodox style causes his regular partner to dance out of his life. Together, these two misfits try to win the Australian Pan Pacific Championships and show the Ballroom Confederation that they are wrong when they say, "there are no new steps. There are two scenes that are my favourite but I wont spoiled it for other views who might of not seen this film yet but I will say the song that is played I have not heard it for years the song is called Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps which was sang by Doris Day that is one scene that is my favourite the other scene that is my favourite happens at the end of the film but again I will not spoiled it for others. This film review has been given five stars which means I loved it because this film shows that you dont have to be a champion dancer to dance and that is what Fran showed to the world and her partner Scot that is can dance and be just as beautiful like the rest of the dances. That is all I have got to say about Strictly Ballroom. Hope you like this film as much as I have and get to write a film review on it.
