Yesterday I talked about a new dance movie that is coming out. I love, love, love dance movies. Writing the blog made me wonder what movies I have missed and I wanted to compile a list of dance movies.

Instead of doing this myself I stumbled upon a great website that lists Latin dance movies by genre...it is an awesome list and spans from 1930 - 2005.
