Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film.

[edit] Musicals

Maybe some musicals should be added here? They involve dancing almos by their very definition...

I had in mind to list movies tha feature specific, identifiable dances. Musical film is a specific kind of art in itself, and I agree it to be mentioned (also in some dance-relted pages as well), but it deserves totally separate set of articles (referenced from here). IMO only musicals featuring recopgnizable dance forms (like the listed "Flying down to Rio") must be listed here. Mikkalai 16:02, 30 Jan 2004 (UTC)

PlainJane 11:05, 17 April 2006 (UTC) I've added films important to lindy hop and swing dance

I had to add "Step Up" tp the Others listing since there's no list for hip hop dance based films(since it has both hip hop and ballet for dances forms)

But maybe something for hip hop dance would help the list along?

[edit] Cleanup

The films in this article didn't appear to be listed in any particular order, so I've gone through it and sorted them by year. PC78 00:07, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
