Movie #9 critique DBarnes netflix challenge (291 to go!) “Been Rich All My Life”
I like the idea of 80 and 90 year olds still tap dancing, but not much to the movie at all..............idea is great, the execution is a bit dull. Rent "Young at heart" instead if you want to see a movie about senior citizens performing. Much more to the story and a real feel good film. Not this one.Join the Silver Belles, a group of five former Harlem showgirls now aged 84 to 96, as they continue to entertain in this documentary by Heather MacDonald. From dancing together in the hottest venues such as the Cotton Club to performing with world-renowned bandleaders Cab Calloway and Duke Ellington, the gallivanting gals were the toast of the town during the 1930s; in 1985, they renounced retirement and reunited to grace the stage once again.
