How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A witty, delightful backstage romp through 1950s Broadway where a washed-up star and a pretentious choreographer stumble toward both artistic triumph and romance through a haze of show-stopping song and dance.
