How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A bursting-with-energy musical where three sailors careen through New York City in a single day, chasing romance and adventure with infectious enthusiasm. The city itself becomes a playground, and the film moves with the kind of unrelenting joy that feels like a celebration of being alive and footloose.
