Every Little Step

Every Little Step, like A Chorus Line itself, should prove catnip for any self-respecting, self-flagellating actor-dancer.

There's a terribly interesting story behind the creation of the musical phenom A Chorus Line, but don't look to this confused and often self-congratulatory documentary to tell it.

It's all up there on the screen in this impassioned, exhilarating documentary. They want to dance for you. It's what they did for love.

These stories of struggle, leading to triumph or defeat, are what make Every Little Step so fascinating. They're also the film's weakness - we only get a taste of who these people are and how they came to be here.
