Saw the film Cold War yesterday (highly recommended).
Apart from the amazing photography, the soundtrack stood out.
Here's a song of it.

This is a normal post Jodorowsky movies are like freestyle Jazz or the Turner Prize.
People pretend to enjoy them because their peers pretend to like them. They're worried that they might come across as philistine if they raise their hand and call the work out for what it is - over-reaching, needlessly pretentious nonsense.

...In my opinion.

This is a normal post Right, so, the dance clip I was after is from a film she did called Flareup, apparently.
I found the trailer, but voiceover is horribly dated. So instead, someone has done a bit of an agreeable tune with some distorted bass. I think it works well:

Never heard of the original before.

If you want feedback - It could do with a try again button when you die, rather than having to go through the instructions each time. And preferably have saves each level rather than every 20 - pretty sure it would have good casual gaming "one more go until I win" appeal with that approach.

This is a normal post I tried it this morning with Pale Moon (FF fork) on my home PC, with no joy (clicking anything on the initial screen does nothing)...
It could be down to one of the extensions I have installed, though (I'll try it with extensions disabled when I'm back home later, if I remember).

However, it works OK on Fennec (mobile FF) on my mobile.

I wouldn't expect much modern stuff to work on IE...MS are actually now actively trying to get people to stop using it...
