CommentsXp Best movie ever!

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

xoxoamore I found this film to be a complete and utter bore. I do remember the seeing other user reviewer of this film, Rachel Berman, perform and she was a wonderful dancer But I"m afraid this new work and film, is just not what I had hoped it would be. The point seemed to be to drum up sales for the company's spring season, and I was handed a card on the way in that gave me a code for a 26% discount on tickets. Ballet 422 was used to the same effect for NYCB (but no discount there), but that was a much better film and really showed Justin Peck's creative process.I think part of the problem with this film was the boring camera work. Part of it was that the work is simply uninteresting and Paul Taylor is now too old to demonstrate the finer points of choreography. Also this group of dancers is now no longer of the caliber of Rachel, Patrick Corbin and Lisa Viola. I can only say that if someone wants to see a documentary on Paul Taylor (and really, who needs 2 of these) they watch the VASTLY superior documentary by Matthew Diamond entitled, Paul Taylor, Dancemaker.

Rachel Berman Full disclosure- I was lucky enough to dance for the Paul Taylor Dance Company for over a decade. It was the best time of my life, and I will always be identified as a "Taylor dancer"- a very high honor indeed! Though I have known the man for several decades now, he is an extremely private person, dedicated to this ephemeral art. Filmmaker Kate Geis goes behind the scenes to show how he creates a beautiful dance from scribbled notes on a pad, a piece of music and his gorgeous dancers. It is truly remarkable. A masterpiece out of thin air. As he recently turned 85- this is an important documentation that will show future generations the man that has helped shape modern dance for over 60 years!
