How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A heavenly parade of song-and-dance numbers strung together as a revue, celebrating the spectacle and joy of performance itself. It's less a cohesive story than a series of glittering vignettes designed to dazzle and delight at every turn.
