Fosse
on DVD
(2001)
Starring: Ben Vereen, Ann Reinking
Director: Judy Kinberg
Certificate: 
Sorry to disagree with everyone else but.... I love musicals and thought I woudl love this but fraid not. Its all so much the same. By the the end I though if I see one more hat, another pair of shouldrs pushed back and a pair of arms flapping behind like a dementedswan I'll scream. I'm sure its technically brilliant stuff and difficult to dance and I coudln't do it but its also boring. The performances are so american adn I don't mean that as a complimentor in a positive way. The perfroamsers are so pleased with themselves but there is no fire, passion, emotion or spark of life. I know its about dance but the singing is very weak. Teh music/arrnagments are very 1970s. The sets and costumes are mainly dark/black. After 15 minutes i watched on fast forward and was till bored. Unless you really love Fosse (and why woudl you he just repeats himself endlessly) move long - nothing to see here
