the nobility his rival count adamar tries to catch him in his lie why don't you show us all a dance of your country show us a dance of gelderland little does he know William has practiced some sweet dance moves and won't be giving up his ruse that easily this medieval movie is filled with anachronisms from the music to the dancing to the hairstyles [Music] foreign this particular dance sequence starts out slow stilted and formal but when David Bowie overtakes the loots and Liars the dancers loosen up and start having fun [Music] Number Nine Irish dance Titanic the lover decks are a completely different world from the upper class one rose is used to wait I can't do this we're gonna have to get a little bit closer like this and this raucous party is her first real introduction to it while Cal and the other Richie riches enjoy a quiet evening talking politics Rose finds herself at home among the third class passengers [Music] [Applause] she can drink like them and she can hold her own on the Dance Floor oh and did we mention that young Leo DiCaprio is there too who wouldn't choose a party like this over Brandy and cigars in the smoking room [Music] number eight Sing Sing Swing Kids in late 1930s Germany listening to anything other than German music came with risks Swing Kids inspired by real events followed three young friends who deal with the pressure to support Nazi ideology without giving up their love for swing music and dancing try to understand man riding the waves of the early 90s swing Revival this film is packed with crazy high energy dance numbers most of which take place at the boy's favorite Club the Bismarck [Music] [Applause] still none is as wild and frenetic as the very first number Sing Sing With a Swing it's a pulse-pounding Louis Prima song with an amazing drum solo that sets the tone for the entire film [Music] [Applause] number seven ain't my type of hype house party [Music] [Applause] [Music] when the parents are away the high schoolers will play in this case they might hit and play Peter play Martin has the house to himself and he's determined to host the party of the decade when his best friend kid tries to show off his dance moves he gets put in his place by two girls he's interested in his dance partner Groove can't even stay upright so play jumps in to save the battle and the result is one of the greatest Dance Off in cinema history [Music] for a long time hip-hop culture and diverse groups of black characters were rare science on the big screen making house party not just a great dance movie but a cultural milestone [Music] number six prom Footloose is that you've heard the saying dance like no one's watching well these kids dance like it's illegal because it is in the tiny rural town of Beaumont dancing and rock music are banned but that's not going to stop big city newcomer Ren from getting his groove on although ran is unsuccessful in convincing the Town Council to overturn the ban we know that thanks for him Beaumont will never be the same [Music] the movie culminates in a prom held at a Grain Mill just outside the town limit that features some epic dancing plus Ren's moves were even more entertaining when Kevin Bacon and Eric McCormack recreated them 20 years later in an episode of Will and Grace [Applause] number five Mambo West Side Story [Music] when you can't have a real battle sometimes the next best thing is a dance battle glad hand a social worker hopes the dance will bring the two rival gangs together but of course the Jets and the Sharks end up fighting over Turf on the Dance Floor just as they do on the streets oh each group brings their own style to the dance giving every participant a chance to show off their skills nothing captures the feeling of love at first sight like when Tony and Maria spy each other from across the room and everything else becomes a blur number four thriller 13 going on 30. there's nothing worse than getting stuck at a dull work party if only someone would start an incredibly synchronized dance to one of the most iconic pop songs of all time the party is a stinker a dud a flap a zero on a scale of one to ten maybe if somebody played something other than this something with a Melody that's exactly what happens when Jenna saves a boring company get-together by Leading everyone in the Thriller dance [Music] if Jenna's dancing seems a little immature that's because she's secretly a 13 year old trapped in the body of her future 30 year old self really though the whole thing works because Jenna is so childlike and unself-conscious [Music] I wonder she's not trying to do the dance perfectly she's just trying to have fun although they're not quite as smooth or coordinated as the King of Pop we're impressed that so many of her co-workers remembered all the moves at all number three the time warp The Rocky Horror Picture Show imagine being stranded at night in a rainstorm your cold wet scared and then you stumble onto this [Music] recalling [Music] when straight laced Brad and Janet happen upon the Mansion of Dr frankenfurter they're in for more than just a wild dance party in a movie Musical full of incredibly catchy songs somehow the time warp is the most infectious even with the star of the movie not making an appearance in it [Music] best of all the song teaches you the dance moves as you go so you can do the time warp again and again [Music] number two Hand Jive grease this performance isn't just a fantastically high energy dance number it also packs all the drama of high school into one five minute scene enough [Music] [Applause] the romance is the betrayals the Nerds the bullies it's all in there and it all goes wildly off the rails while everyone is competing to win the national Bandstand dance-off the host is creeping on the contestants and the teachers are helpless to keep things under control Danny and Sandy enter The Fray with brilliant chemistry but when Sunny steals Danny's date the latter is a little too quick to latch onto the next girl up but in this case the devious Chacha di Gregorio Chacha only cares about winning and with a young John Travolta as her partner no one else stands a chance [Music] [Applause] oh yeah oh yeah before we unveil our top pick here are a few honorable mentions I'm a Believer Shrek there's no better way to celebrate a fairy tale wedding than with a dance party [Music] day o Beetlejuice the dancing might be involuntary but that's what makes it hilarious [Music] Bunch all right banana [Music] the Lindy Hop hell's a pop in
