How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A glittering tap-dancing showcase where virtuosic dance numbers unfold between scenes of charming romantic entanglement, creating the sense of watching two people fall for each other through the language of movement even as circumstance keeps pulling them apart.
