Description

For over three decades, there's been one singular sensation: A Chorus Line, the groundbreaking hit musical inspired by the emotional lives of dancers during the audition process. Now the story comes full circle as a new documentary offers a revealing, unprecedented look at the auditions for the Broadway revival of the perennial classic, including interview footage with Bob Avian, Michael Bennett, Charlotte d'Amboise, Marvin Hamlisch and Donna McKechnie to name a few. The music, the moves and the real-life drama - they're all here in a documentary that brings you closer to the footlights than you ever thought possible.

    While I'm a HUGE lover of the film prodcution of A Chorus Line, I truly found this documentary to be informative and entertaining. However, I think the film was lacking something in not giving you the history behind why the film production didn't follow the true stage production. I loved the film production much more than the stage because it had great songs like Suprise, Suprise. I thought that song carried a lot of weight in the film. Yet still, I loved the history lesson about how this great production first came to life.
  • This is the movie that the movie of A Chorus Line SHOULD have beeen!

    Make no mistake. This is a documentary about the auditions for the 2007 revival of A Chorus Line. And yet, this has more emotion, joy, thrills, suspense, dance, tears, and happiness than the movie ever did. GET THIS MOVIE! If you are a fan of the show, Every Little Step will help you relive the joys of the stage production. If you are an aspiring dancer or theatre person, the movie is a love letter to you telling you what it takes to perservere and succeed. You are right there at all the phases of the auditions, watching the behind-the-scenes activities of the production team as they look to recreate the magic of the original production. There are tons of clips of the original cast members back in 1975, audio tapes of the first workshop with Michael Bennet, contemporary interviews with cast members such as Donna McKechnie, and the energetic Baayork Lee who re-creates the original choreography. NOTE TO HOLLYWOOD: This is how to film dance. Feet, bodies, arms--all working together to make you feel the movement on stage. Did I mention to GET THIS MOVIE? Do it! Do it, now! And then give yourself some time to sit and absorb yourself in the new stories of "what we did for love." (And bring a box of tissues.)
