I was delighted to find this film on DVD format. I was enthralled by the film when I myself was quite young and bought it for a couple of "budding, baby ballerinas". Needless to say, even though they are only 6ys and 71/2years, they too were riveted to the screen. As I expected, they glossed over the more adult themes and revisited all the dancing scenes again and again. they love it. The film is quite an old film but the colour and sharpness are still good The story is about Jill, a little girl whose mother, a prima ballerina can no longer dance because of a car accident after one of her stage performances. This was a result of an argument between the mother and her ambitious, but unfaithful, conniving, husband manager, who was driving them both home after the ballet. Father takes off leaving the two to fend for themselves, but returns many months later, with a Hollywood producer just as the little girl is about to dance a leading role in her ballet school's gala. Aother argument ensues when Father tries to force mum to agree to let Jill go with him to Hollywood. (Father has phoned babysitter and arranged for her to leave the child on her own, thus hoping to force the issue). A fire starts and father rescues child, but does not survive homself. Jill, now tucked up in bed doesn't know about her father's death and goes to sleep dreaming of dancing. The majority is ok for youngsters but the fire scene can be skipped (DVD) to the dance scene at the end if neccessary. I think most little girls will enjoy this. Also adults who enjoy films from a bygone era.Read full review
