Really awesome movie!!! If you have two hours to spare take a look at this movie. Basically, it is about a girl who is entering a dance marathon (those are now illegal), since her partner has an illness, he cannot compete. The director points out a boy in the building who isn't competing and tells him if he wants to compete with her. He agrees since he has nothing better to do. From there the rest of the story begins and although it may seem sucky at first, it becomes a riveting story, you won't want to miss a second!!! If anyone likes Jane Fonda, she's the main star of the movie :) Also, it was based on the book by the same name by Horace McCoy.
