The story about a young girl who goes to New York to learn dancing in a ballet academy... okay, I admit that the plot is a little thin. "Fame" or "A chorus line" had similar storylines. But forget about that! The dancing sequences were breathtaking! It just carries you along! I have heard that Nicholas Hytner ("The madness of King George") had also directed some operas in Paris, Amsterdam, etc. - I guess that says anything! "Center stage" has no stars - except Peter Gallagher - and that´s good! Young people on their hard way to success - the young and fresh faces make it movie more believable. One word: great!
