Product Description

Robert Carlisle stars in a heartwarming dance drama in which a recent widower rediscovers hope after a chance encounter with a dying man. Carlisle plays recently widowed baker Frank Keane. En route to a delivery, Frank discovers a fresh accident and a man, Steve (John Goodman), is dying in the wreckage. Waiting together for the inevitable, Steve pleads with Frank to complete for him the mission he was on before the wreck - to meet an old sweetheart. The trail leads Frank to the Marilyn Hotchkiss' Ballroom Dancing and Charm School. Here, Frank is gradually absorbed into the group of regular attendees - in particular Meredith Morrison (Marisa Tomei), a woman on the same subconscious quest he is. Frank discovers a passion for dancing and, consequently, rediscovers his passion for living.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Little Different 27 Mar 2009
By Angel
Format:DVD
I would watch the test card if Robert Carlyle were on it, having said that this is a delightful film for those who want to sit, relax and enjoy a real story. The whole production I found warm and in many parts very touching. I heard someone label this a "chick flick" but I feel they are wrong.

5.0 out of 5 stars a little known gem 10 Nov 2012

This must be one of the best hidden gems ever. Robert Carlyle just plays this to perfection. He can dance, he can really act and his love scene must be one of the most touching I've ever seen.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it 10 April 2013
By Emma L
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
The only reason why I bought this dvd was because Robert Carlyle stars in it. Despite this I found the film dull and boring.

Also the service from this seller was terrible as it took near enough a month for it to arrive.
