5.0 out of 5 stars Dancing at the Blue Iguana, 16 Jun 2007
By L. Williams "triq" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Dancing At The Blue Iguana [DVD] [2002] (DVD)
I came accross this film by reading a listmania, and selected it because of the talented cast - Sandra Oh(Greys Anatomy), Jennifer Tilly (Bullets Over Broadway;Bound)& Daryl Hannah(Splash; All the Presidents Women) to name just 3, this film blew me away by the powerful performancesa of ALL the cast, including extras, some of who were actual lapdanders/strippers, they had been cooperative with the cast in creating this movie 70% of which is set within a strip club - The Blue Iguana, although there are lengthy explicit scenes and continuous stripping/dancing throughout the film, one becomes so engrossed in the characters following the twists and turns of their lives, one becomes oblivious to seeing the nudity, instead held captivated with the charisma that builds up.
It is an improvisational workshop indie film, which means that the actors are given only the genre of the film and where it will take place, the rest is up to them to create, there is no script, they speak as though they have become the characters they are portraying.
It is a beautifully crafted film with flawless performances and sharp editing. The soundtrack is fantastic, suiting the mood exactly.
This is an infinitely re-watchable film as it is so multi layered, and with the dvd you get bonus features such as the voice over through the film by both the director and producers, plus a fascinating hour long documentary made by Daryl Hannah about how she entered the world of women who live this way and how they became close, contributing greatly to the authenticity in making the film, they befriended her, opening up this world they live in and inspiring the characters that complete the film.
I would highly recommend this film, it is not gratuitous and does not exploit the pole dancing aspect, instead it follows through and delivers a masterpiece that is insightful and quite gripping, right from the start to the very end.

1.0 out of 5 stars Based on an improv - and it shows, 11 Jul 2003
By PB (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Dancing At The Blue Iguana [DVD] [2002] (DVD)
This film tries to cover too many issues and deals with none. The storyline wanders all over the place and shows us nothing. The characters are (obviously) all damaged in some way, but there's little exploration of why or how - just that they are, and that they fail to find happiness. Some have self-destructive tendencies. Ultimately, though, I can't say I took anything away from this film.

At the end of the final credits, you learn that the film is based on an improvisation. It shows. Not enough work was put into the film post-improv. This may be interesting to watch unfold in a live setting, but not on film. Avoid.
