Jennifer Beals stars as Alex Owens, a Pittsburgh steel-mill welder by day, and bar dancer by night. Harboring dreams of a career in ballet, she is given financial support in this endeavor by her boss Nick Hurley (Michael Nouri) and moral support by demanding but big-hearted instructor Hanna Long (Lilia Skala). The film's signature scene is, of course, Alex's water-drenched dance audition, largely performed in long shot by her dance double Marine Jahan. Essentially an old-fashioned backstage yarn, Flashdance was given a contemporary spin by its pulsating, musical score featuring the Oscar-winning Best Song, Flashdance...What a Feeling, (music by Giorgio Moroder, lyrics by Keith Forsey and Irene Cara).

I have always been intrigued with dance. I loved the energy of this movie when I turned 40. Not that I'm 70 my enjoyment of it is purely a matter of nostalgia. Most people I know think it "trite" and dated and refuse to watch it with me. I could live without it - but why? The bold music and dance as well as the theme of making one's dream come true - less than the romance - still make me smile.
