Richard Attenborough's film version of the smash Broadway musical, in which dancers audition for an important new show in front of hard-bitten director Zach (Michael Douglas). The number of hopefuls is reduced to just sixteen and Zach asks each one to step into the spotlight to reveal their hopes and fears. Meanwhile, he has to contend with his own past when his ex-girlfriend turns up looking for a part in the show. Musical numbers include 'Dance Ten, Looks Three' and 'What I Did for Love'.
