Martha : Revealed
9 March 2005
Dance, the ultimate spectacle number. Sweeping us into landscapes extreme and sublime. Berkeley and Astaire did it their way and Martha did it her's. Herrmann's homage to Graham is at times hilarious and surreal without negating the integrity of this great artist's work. Move's larger-than-life portrayal of Martha is both insane and somehow appropriate, when considering all the statements made through this choreographer's pelvis. Delicious cameo's by Harry and Mizrahi both strengthen the film's intent and engage a less dance-savvy crowd. Raucous and irreverent, this film is a must see for everyone who has owned a dance-belt and for those of us who admire them.
