That was good.

- Well, I think we have a winner here.

I loved your dance.

- Thank you, thank you very much.

- I think Laurie would work
out very well for our film.

- I'm happy to hear that.

She's all yours.
- Thank you.

- Now, when could we discuss
the details about her?

- Bob, anytime tomorrow.

Today, I have a meeting at Lincoln Center.

I think I should be going now.

- Okay, let's go.
- Fine

(upbeat dance music)

- Tonight, let's hit
the streets of New York

and dance on Broadway.

- Yeah, Central Park.

- All over New York.

- Definitely.

I'm going to choreograph some hot numbers

and we'll dance everywhere.

- Yeah!
- All right!

That will be so much fun.

Don't you think?
- Guys, take a 10 minute break

and then Mike will run class.

Come on, honey, let's go to the office.

(upbeat dance music)

You know, you performed very well today.

- Oh, yeah. You think so?

- Yeah.

- Can I get you something?

- Uh, yeah, get me Coke.

- All right.
- Thanks.

(upbeat dance music)

(both moan)

Mike, I gotta go.

You take care of class
and I'll see you tomorrow.

- Okay.

- Thanks.

Buh-bye.

- Mm.

- Excuse me. Could you
tell me where I find Doc?

- He's not here right now.

- Well, do you know when he'll be back?

It's very important that I speak to him.

- Oh, what's the matter?

- Well, I've just come in from London.

I'm a dancer.
- London?

I'm from London too.
- Really?

- Hey Kathy, could you go
through that combination again?

Why don't we sit down over here?

By the way, my name's Mike.

What's yours?
- Hi, I'm Julie.

- So you're a dancer.

Are you a good one?

- A good one?

I'm a great dancer.

- Oh, yeah?

Tell me what brings you here?

- Well, I have a dream.

I wanna dance on Broadway.

- Several years ago, I came
here with that same dream.

I guess I still have it,

but I haven't been lucky enough to find

a dynamite dance partner.

Hey, maybe now you'll be my dance goddess.

- Dance goddess.

I kind of like that.

- I'm not putting you on.

I mean it.

- Really?

- Julie, I work very hard at what I do,

but I just haven't been
lucky enough to get a break.

- Well I don't think luck
has anything to do with it.

If you have enough fire in
you to get what you want

and you've got some
connections, then that'll do it.

- Oh, well here Doc has the connections.

By the way, how do you know Doc?

- Well, I don't really know him.

I know a friend of Doc's who asked me

to get in touch with him
whenever I needed help.

So do you know when I'll be back?

- Oh, he should be back soon.

But in the meanwhile, if you like,

you can look around,
browse, have a cup of tea,

or if you like, you can join the class.

- Really?

Great.

I'd love to.

I just need a minute to change.

Thanks.

(tapes rewinds)

- Five, six, seven, eight.

- Hey, Doc.

I'd like you to meet an
aspiring Broadway star.

This is Julie.
- Hello, Julie.

How are you?
- I'm fine, thank you.

- I think, let's go to my
office and we will talk there.

- Okay.

(dancers chattering)

- Okay, everybody let's go.

- [Dancer] What are you doing in town?

(upbeat dance music)

- Ready?

Five, six, seven, eight.

Slow, Kim.

- You dance extremely well.

Where were you hiding so far?

- In London.
- You're from London?

- Yes, your friend Ali asked me to see you

whenever I need any help.

- You know him?
- Yes, I know him well.

- I'm not going to ask you how well,

but for him, I'll do anything.

- Here, Doc.
- Thank you, Kathy.

- You're welcome.
- Hi.

Thanks.
- You're welcome.

- Well, Doc, I've come
to New York with a dream.

I wanna dance on Broadway.

I wanna be a star.

- I think you are a star.

- I don't know any other
people here in America.

So that's why I really need your help.

- Fine, I will help you.

Just tell me what you want.

- Well, first of all, I need a job,

and I need a place to stay.

- You got it.

Kathy, send Mike in, please.

- You're incredible.

Really, thank you so much.

I really appreciate it.

- Don't mention it.
- What's up, doc?

- Mike, Judy is now part of our family.

I want her to feel at home.

So why don't you take her out?

Show her New York, New York.

Socialize her.

Everything is on the house.

- Okay, Doc.

It's always a pleasure to
take out a beautiful girl.

Come on.

Come.

- Thanks again.
- Okay.

Nice meeting you. See you again.

(upbeat dance music)

(bright music)

(ball clacks)

- You have such a great apartment, Mike.

- Thank you.
- I really like it.

Ooh!
- Oops.

- Do you live here alone
or do you have a roommate?

- No, I live alone.

- Must get lonely sometimes, huh?

- Sometimes.

But I've been living here
for about 10 years now.

So it's all right.

- Do you have a girlfriend?

- Sort of.

- What do you mean, "sort of?

- Well, my boss, Maggie's
got a crush on me.

She's really great choreographer,

but I really don't love her.

She's just not my type.

(ball clacks)

- Hmm, is that so?

Well, can I ask what is your type?

- You're my type.

(bright music)

(phone rings)

Yeah?

No, I wasn't home. I just got back.

Yeah, I'll come right over.

- Who was that?

- A friend.

Listen, Julie, I'm gonna take you home.

Tomorrow's gonna be a big day.

We're gonna be dancing in Times Square.

- Times Square, isn't that where all

the Broadway theaters are?

- Yeah, it's the heart of New York City.

It's just like our Piccadilly in London.

- Can I dance with you guys?

- Yeah, sure.

Now you're one of the gang.

(bright music)

(upbeat music)

(doorbell buzzes)

- Come in. The door is open.

- [Mike] Hey Maggie, how you doing?

- You goddamn son of a bitch.

Where the hell were you?

I called you a million times.

The phone kept ringing

and ringing.
- Hey, hey,

just calm down.

I'm sorry, I wasn't home.

Brand new dynamite dancer at the studio.

Her name is Julie.

But Doc asked me to show her
around the city, all right?

- So you were out
fooling around with Julie

while I was here feeling miserable?

You know, you don't care about me anymore.

You don't love me.

- Look, Maggie.

I'm sorry, all right?

You know I care about you.

You know I love you.

(upbeat music)

I'd never do anything to hurt you.

I'm all yours.

- Do you like Julie?

- Oh, come on. I don't even know her.

One thing I do know,
she's a dynamite dancer

and you're gonna love
watching her tomorrow.

(dramatic music)

(upbeat dance music)

Hi, Maggie.

This is Julie, our dynamite new dancer.

- Hi, Maggie. How are you?

- Hi, Julie.

Doc and Mike told me a lot
of good things about you.

- That's really nice of them.

- I'm looking forward to seeing how good

of a dancer you really are.

- [Woman] Hey Maggie, look at this.

(horns beeping)

- Ah, Julie you wanna
sit down for a second?

I'd like to have the chat with you.

- Okay.

(bright music)

- You really are a great dancer.

How long have you been dancing?

- God, as long as I can remember.

I mean, for me, dancing is definitely

the most important thing in my life.

When I'm dancing, nothing
else matters to me.

- That's great.

So tell me, what are you up to?

- Well, I've come to
New York with a dream.

I wanna dance on Broadway.

I wanna be a star.

- Well, you certainly have
the potential to be a star.

You've got all the right material.

- What do you mean, right material?

- Well, you're beautiful.

Sexy, very talented.

And I'm on top of all that,

you've got all the connections.

Doc's willing to help you out

and I can help you with some hot numbers.

- Well, Maggie, I'd certainly appreciate

anything you can do for me.

- Okay, then just be honest with me.

When I saw you and Mike dancing out there,

I saw a lot of electricity.

Am I hallucinating or
is something going on

between you guys?

- Well, I think that while dancing,

there's a certain
chemistry between us, yeah.

- Okay, let me rephrase my question.

Are you trying to get Mike?

- No, definitely not.

Don't worry. Maggie.

I'm not gonna mess around with Mike.

I don't wanna screw up my dream.

- Good, I'm glad to hear that

because I don't know if you know this,

but Mike and I have been
going out for a long time

and I don't wanna share him
with you or with anybody else.

Understand?

- I understand.

Maggie, you have my word.

I would never allow anybody or anything

to come between me and my dream.

- Great 'cause Doc tells me

there's this director, Jack,

he's got a new Broadway show,

he's looking for a lead dancer

and he thinks it's great
opportunity for you.

And I'm willing to choreograph
some numbers for you.

- Maggie, that'd be great.

When do we start?

- Right now?
- All right.

- Come on.

We're gonna be in the studio.

They'll be sitting over there.

Start with your right foot.

Let me just teach you the feet first.

So you have one, two, three, accent, four.

One, two, three, four.

One, two, three, four, step, step,

look left, look front.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Now accents will be on four.

Really lift your legs.

Don't make them so small
like I'm doing now.

- Okay.
- Just, just

do the feet with me.

One, two, three, four.

One, two.

(bright dance music)

Let's do a little bigger and arms.

So you have one, two,
three, push up, four.

Four.

- All right.
- Are you getting it?

Ah, I gotta go.

I'll see you tomorrow at the studio

and we'll work at it.
- Okay.

- Yeah, buh-bye.
- Bye.

(bright dance music)

- Hey, Julie.

- Mike, I wanna talk
to you about something.

Can you wait for me by
the bench for a bit?

- Yeah, sure.

(bright dance music)

Hi, honey.

- First of all, don't call me, honey.

I just had a talk with Maggie,

and I'm not gonna let
you cheat on her anymore.

- But you know I don't love her.

- Don't tell me that.

Frow now on Mike, our
relationship is strictly platonic.

- But I don't like platonic relationships.

- Well then that's too bad.

I'm not gonna screw up
my dream for you, Mike.

If you want, I can go
and talk to Doc about it.

- No, you don't have to tell Doc about it.

I don't wanna lose my job.

All right, Julie.

From now on I'll just be a good
friend and a secret admirer.

- No, just a good friend.

- All right, Julie.

Have it your way

Bye, Julie.

- God, why can't I have both?

(bright dance music)

(upbeat music)

- Doc, that ballerina
is a dynamite dancer.

- Jack, I'm sure Julie will work out great

for your Broadway show.

- I certainly hope so.

(dramatic music)

Doc, remember Sandy?

I worked so hard with her,
but she just didn't work out.

- I remember her.

I think as long as you have in your head

that you can create stars,

you're gonna have this problem.

(upbeat dance music)

I know you, Jack.

You're a good director.

Just don't play God.

- You think Julie gonna
work out for my show.

What makes you think that?

- I don't think that.

I know. She's a star.

- I got to see her dance.

- Fine, let's go see the audition.

- Doc, I'd like to meet Julie and Maggie.

- Okay, Jack, let's go to the green room.

I'll introduce you to there.

(upbeat dance music)

Jack, this is our beautiful

and creative choreographer, Maggie.

- Hello.

- Hi, Maggie.

You got a hot number there.

- What can I say? When
you're hot, you're hot,

and I'm hot.

- And this is Juie.

- Hi, Jack. Nice to meet you.

- Hi, Julie.

- I hope you liked my performance.

- Oh, I loved it.

I think you will work out for my show.

- I'm happy to hear that.

- Doc, can I talk to you about Julie?

- Sure, let's go to my office.

- Great, come on. Let's
go back to the studio.

- Okay.

Yay!

(upbeat dance music)

- You're gonna be doing a
lot of jumping and kicking.

So stretch out, okay?

We're gonna be jumping a lot.

And Vin you're on the bench, all right?

- All right.
- Woo!

(dancers chattering)

(upbeat dance music)

(doorbell buzzes)

- Hi, Maggie.

I just wanted to come over to thank you

for all that help you
gave me at the audition.

- You know, you were really great.

I think during the dance a star was born.

- Yeah, you putting me on or what?

- I'm really serious. You
were really fantastic.

Um, did you hear any good news yet?

- Well, sort of.

I talked to Doc and he said that Jack

really liked to performance,

but he wants to see one more dance.

- No problem.

I'll make up another dance for you.

Here, listen to this music.

(bright dance music)

I'm programming thiis for
dance outside of the park.

You like it?
- Yeah.

And Doc mentioned to me that he wanted

the dance to be outside.

- Great, you wanna learn
some of the movements now?

- Sure.

- All right, the concept is we're out

in the middle of the park, right?

And the dancers are all in a huddle

and you're going to separate.

So you'll be coming out of the middle,

straight forward,

there's a double pirouette, then hit.

Okay, so it's gonna be double pirouette,

when you hit, the dancers
are all gonna separate.

- Mm-hmm.
- Try it.

(bright dance music)

Great.
- That's great.

- Let's do one more time.

All right, just pull up a little bit.

- Yeah. That's my bad side.

Why'd it have to be my bad side for?

- All right, you can reverse it.

Do it instead on the other side.

Good, just shoot your
arms to the other side.

Let's sit down.

(bright music)

- Doc, now I have made up my mind.

I wanna take Julie for my Broadway show.

And can I use some of your
dances for the chorus?

- Sure, Jack.

- Thank you.
- You're my friend.

You can take anything you want.

- Thanks. Where is Julie?

I wanna sign the contract.

- I'll get her right now.

Hey Julie, could you come here please?

Have a seat.

- Well, what's up, Doc?

- Jack wants you for his Broadway show.

- Really?

- Julie, want to start the
show two weeks from now

and lots of rehearsals to do.

I want you to be ready for it, okay?

- I'll be ready.
- Well, Julie,

you got it.
- Wow.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you so much.

Thank you.

(bright music)

- Hello?
- Hi, Julie.

This is Mike.

- Hi, Mike. How are you?

- [Mike] I'm fine.

I just wanted to congratulate
you on your Broadway show.

- Well thanks.

I really appreciate all your help.

I just hope I'm gonna be a success.

- [Mike] Oh, I'm sure you will.

Julie, Maggie and I just split up.

I'm feeling a little depressed.

Could I come over to your place
and talk to you for a while?

- Sure, you can come on over.

How about if you meet me on the roof

in say about a half an hour?

- [Mike] Sure, that sounds great.

- Okay, I'll see you then.
- Okay.

- All right, buh-bye.
- Bye.

- So tell me what happened
between you and Maggie?

- Well, Julie, I never
told you this before.

Thanks.

Maggie's got a drug problem.

I think she's trying to
destroy herself or something.

I couldn't take it anymore. I bailed.

I just had to get out.

- I feel really sorry for Maggie.

- Julie, I still love you.

I still feel the same way about you

as when you walked into the
studio that very first day.

Remember when I told you you
would be my dance goddess?

- I remember.

- Well, in my eyes, you
still are my dance goddess.

I still believe in you.

- I know how you feel about me, Mike,

and I really love you too,

but you can't separate me from my dream.

I am that dream.

- I understand that.

I wanna help you realize that dream.

I wanna make it our dream.

I wanna marry you.

- Oh, Mike.

(bright music)

(ship horn blares)

(bright music)

(horns beeping)

(pedestrians chattering)

(upbeat music)

- Well, Lisa, how are you feeling?

- Nervous, very nervous.

Opening night always makes me nervous.

- For me, it's the first few
nights that are really rough.

- Oh, but then it's smooth sailing.

- What do you think about Julie?

- She's a phenomenal dancer.

- You know Jack has a crush on her?

- Oh, don't believe it. It's just a rumor.

I know she's not available.

- What do you mean she's not available?

- I mean, she's stuck. She
has a steady boyfriend.

- Honey, you have a good rehearsal now.

- Okay.

You gonna meet me after the show?

- Uh-uh.

Yeah.
- Okay.

Bye, honey.

(dancers chattering)

- I'll see you later.

- Okay, people let's go.

We're gonna be doing finale, okay?

Section four.

Do you remember when I broke
it up into four sections?

I need to see section four,
where you're in the circle.

Come on, let's go, let's move, let's move.

Beth, pull it in tight, okay?

All right, could I please have music?

(upbeat dance music)

Okay, let's go, let's go.

Ready?

And...

Come on people. This is opening night.

I am not interested in marking.

Let's go, dance it.

Cut!

- Paul, I don't like this.

(sighs)

I want some sexy movements.

I want some electricity.

I want some fire in Julie.

- Okay, Jack. You're the boss.

I'll see what I can do best.

- All right.

- Beth, could you please?

(upbeat music)

(crowd chattering)

Julie, could you please come here?

Um, boss wants us to
change the choreography.

We're not gonna change
the choreography, okay?

I just wanna clean it up a little.

Let's take it from, ah,

this section, um, here.

- Okay.
- Okay, yeah.

Yeah.

What I need you to do is
you're a beautiful girl, okay?

I need you to tease the
audience, all right.

That's what I need you to do.

- All right.
- All right?

Play with them.

All right?

Now, let me see it.

(upbeat dance music)

Real sharp. Real sharp.

- Sharp.
- Right here.

Do you know? Cool.

Okay?
