It's been a few days since I did a DVD review, so lemme recommend SHALL WE DANCE. No Richard Gere. No Jennifer Lopez. No Susan Sarandon. Nope, this is the original version, the one directed by Masayuki Suo. In the Original Japanese.

This is a damn good movie. I first saw it back when I lived in Mipple City, rented from the Hipster Video Store down the block. When I came to Texas I found out that Bruce had a copy and would show it to anybody and everybody.

Why bother watching the American remake in this age where you can easily get ahold of the original. On the down side, they put a making-of-the-american-version hype clip in the extras, like we really give a flying f*ck about that...
