Save the Last Dance (2001)

Julia Stiles bridges the worlds of ballet and hip-hop in a coming-of-age story set in inner-city Chicago.

Save the Last Dance is a 2001 dance feature film centred on Club Latin, Swing. For dancers, it's a chance to see these styles performed on screen — the phrasing, partnering, and musicality that the same dances carry onto a real floor.
