Product Description:
Michael Douglas stars as a choreographer who subjects 16 dancers to a grueling audition in this Academy Award-nominated adaptation of the landmark Broadway musical. Featuring Marvin Hamlisch's Oscar-nominated music and Jeffrey Hornaday's (Flashdance) sizzling choreography this thrilling portrayal of life behind the velvet curtains is truly "One Singular Sensation"!After narrowing down hundreds of Broadway hopefuls Zach (Douglas) leads a select group of dancers on the tryout of their lives. In an audition twist Zach asks each performer personal and intimate questions-with results that powerfully affect not only the young performers but the hardened stage veteran as well.System Requirements: Running Time 118 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: MUSICALS/MUSICALS Rating: PG-13 UPC: 027616884596 Manufacturer No: 1004380

If you've never seen this popular production performed on stage in its original form as one of the longest-running musicals in Broadway history, the movie version is probably your next best option--heck, it's your only option! But beware the major difference between the experience of stage and screen, because A Chorus Line is a perfect example of a show that doesn't translate well from one medium to another. Director Richard Attenborough gives it his best shot, cutting some of the production numbers and adding new ones while "opening up" the show to explore the off-stage lives of struggling performers as they prepare for another grueling audition. Michael Douglas plays the harsh, workaholic director who puts the auditioning "gypsies" through the paces, winnowing a large group of hopefuls down to eight lucky cast members for his next big show. There's a subplot about the director's former girlfriend, who returns for the big audition, and along the way the other hopefuls sing and dance while revealing their various hopes and fears. On screen, the musical works best when focused on its dramatic passages; otherwise it's impossible to escape the fact that this material is best suited to live performance. --Jeff Shannon

I loved this movie when it was first released. It is not shown on tv or cable enough. I have been looking for it on and off. I was glad to see it on Amazon.com and for this price. What a great find and on DVD! I ordered it and received it in three days. My sister and I have watched it three times already. We loved the acting by Michael Douglas and those trying out and the music and songs are classic

I was fortunate enough to see the original Broadway Play and I was captivated by the story line and the fantastic, heart warming characters in the play. Too bad the Movie Directors and Script Writers had to do a hack job of the play by changing the plot, changing character plots, and adding way too much to the story and settings.
When will they ever learn that if a Broadway Play is a huge success like "A Chorus Line" was, you don't mess with it and destroy the whole meaning of the ... Read More

Pretty much a must-have for the musical buff. High points: Audrey Landers, several good dancing numbers, Michael Douglas. Negatives: A bit on the campy side at times, but still a fun movie to watch.

Spectacular. . .when there is singing and dancing; tedious (pretentious, trite, self-absorbed. . .so 1980's) when there is talking. Fast forward through Michael Douglas and you have yourself an enjoyable movie.

Especially ones from the eighties! Its not even the story line, the actors, the acting or productions value...its the dancing. I love to watch real dancers rehearsing, auditioning and just dancing. It is so inspiring! Pick this up if you are a true dance lover!
