Film dance is a genre that combines dance and cinema, showcasing choreography within the context of a film. It often features dancers performing in various styles, such as ballet, jazz, or hip-hop, and is used to enhance storytelling, express emotions, or highlight character development. This art form can be seen in musicals, dance films, and even in scenes of non-dance movies where movement plays a crucial role. Notable examples include Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers in classic musicals, as well as contemporary films like La La Land and Step Up, where dance is integral to the narrative.
