I still remember that I bought the DVD of "SAVE THE LAST DANCE" from the Internet a long time ago, and I couldn't wait to go home and watch it. When I first got acquainted with this drama, I was accidentally transferred to CCTV, which happened to be introducing the drama. The plot of a white girl learning to dance with a black boy in the drama attracted me, so I watched it. It turned out that this movie was about The white girl SARA was a ballet dancer. She failed when she entered the JUILLIARD college preliminary exam. And her mother had a car accident because she was about to rush over. SARA came to Chicago to live with her father who rarely met. The dream of becoming a dancer is buried in my heart. The new environment is completely different from her previous life. SARA is one of the few whites in school, but she met the black girl CHENILLE and her brother DEREK, and they took her to the black dance hall STEP, where and in With the encouragement of DEREK, SARA regained the enthusiasm for dancing. She went back to do ballet training again, and the free dance part was learning HIP-POP with DEREK. While dancing, they knew each other better and fell in love, but the pressure from relatives and friends also bothered them. In the end, of course, they overcome all obstacles and get the desired result.
Although it is only a small youth inspirational movie, ATTRACT ME DEEPLY, especially a few of the fragments: when SARA learns to dance HIP-POP with DEREK In fact, they are all a kind of HIP-POP. He taught her to learn the walking and sitting postures of black people, which is very funny. The dance is a perfect fusion of ballet and HIP-POP: strength, femininity and the dynamics of HIP-POP. The music is also very good, the track is: ALL OR NOTHING.
A large part of the film is dancing. In STEP, black people dance, SARA learns to dance, and DEREK teaches dancing. You can feel the strong taste of HIP-POP, but that's it, I think, even if you can’t dance. People will also be deeply attracted and have the urge to jump on the plane to learn about black culture in the black American area, ha ha.
In just 3 days, I watched this movie 7 times over and over again, and the subtitles skipped from Chinese to English and then disabled; I can hear more and more, and I find that I can still speak English, which has a lot of meaning. Chinese translation is very difficult to translate accurately; although I understand most of it, there are still a lot of things that I don’t understand. Suddenly I have a strong desire to learn English well. Haha, this can be regarded as a side effect of watching this film. Right (laughs).

    The soundtrack of K-Ci and Jojo's Crazy is too classic~~~

    It was played by my favorite Julia Stiles. The whole drama is quite tense. The love between black and white girls and the undercurrent of racial problems are like a drawn bow. I don't know when a sharp arrow will be shot. But fortunately, smart children have chosen the right path. In this movie, you can see freedom, hard work, ideals, and love, all the elements that make up youth. So you know, as long as there is enough enthusiasm and perseverance, everything is not a problem.
