I've seen a Chorus Line about a dozen times since my high school performed it in 1978. I've also seen the revival. The music still gives me goosebumps, and I had goosebumps sitting in the theater as they began playing Micheal Bennett's taped interviews from the early 70s when he gathered together a group of dancers and had them talk about their lives, their hopes, their dreams, their aspirations...and what would happen if they could never dance again. That's right...the legendary tapes that any Chorus Line fan knows about but has never heard. If you love this show the way I love this show, you'll find Every Little Step truly fascinating. Jason Tam's audition for the part of Paul was one of the highlights, leaving just about everyone - on screen and off - in tears. I've seen this kid on One Life to Live and never gave him a second thought. Now I have intense respect for his acting skills.
How ironic - a film that shows the struggles of dancers trying to earn a place in a show about the struggles of dancers trying to earn a place in a show... It's worth every penny, and I'll definitely buy it on DVD. I highly recommend it to anyone who has seen and loved a Chorus Line.
