Dance Movies & Jennifer Beals

Is Flashdance the most romantic movie ever made? No. 

Someone once told me that an actor must know/ convey humanity to make the character real. Some say, that Humanity is one of the principles of film and theatre and I believe that to be true. 

Anyway, you will probably have to rent the movie to know what scene I'm talking about but it is when the (my favorite) song Lady, Lady, Lady by Joe Esposito is playing in the background. 

Furthermore allow me to really go down in flames in nerdom when I tell you that scene makes me feel sad and sweeps me off my feet. For me, it conveys that being Vulnerable means to show yourself to others completely and utterly without holding back for fear of rejection or judgment. Here are my strengths and weaknesses, take me as I am. It is true, Love can lift you up. 

However, in order for you to be vulnerable with someone you must first be completely honest with yourself. Of course that honesty must be for both partners in the duet. Have a great day. 

Love Shelley
