So, on that note, behold a definitive list of some of the classic dance films, in no particular order (minus film adaptations of Broadway musicals, trust, that’s a category for another day). But, until the sweet, sweet day that this becomes the cultural norm, we can try our best to live vicariously through cinema. Real-life would be so much better if everyone broke out into spontaneous-but highly choreographed dance routines-at any given moment. Rather than enhance character development and storylines through silly old dialogue, it’s way more fun to witness a triumphant pirouette or high-stakes breakdance battle. And it's a damn delight to admire their capabilities. Turns out there are people out there who can move parts of the body that, tbh, I didn't even know existed. But that doesn’t mean it’s not fun to watch others master some complicated choreo.

I mean, some of us are still struggling to keep up with those super difficult TikTok routines.

It’s safe to say that not everyone can own the dance floor. Youll find a DeLorean time machine, plenty of hair gel and the perfect blockbuster in our list of the best 80s movies.
