The acting isn’t the best, but the story is great, and the dancing is fantastic. It was fun to watch and very inspirational. Unfortunately, a few bad words were put in, mostly by the character who plays the rebel. She also smokes constantly. One of the lead characters is gay (quite common in the world of ballet), but the movie doesn’t show any acts of homosexuality. There is some underage drinking and drunkenness when the students go out for a night on the town, but they are punished for it the next day. Fornication is implied once when a couple is kissing and then shown in bed with the covers over them the next morning. The movie itself is fabulous – there are just those few bad things thrown in, probably just to get the rating that Hollywood thinks will attract bigger crowds.
