Strictly AWESOME!

I came home from work this evening to find my mother watching movies on Netflix. Hooray! Our online movie fun was set up again to enjoy some good 'ole entertainment. The first movie to catch my eye? Strictly Ballroom.


 Random Fun Fact # 1 about Mindi (in no certain order): I loooooooooooove dancing movies. Of any kind. From tap dancers in musicals, Hip Hop dance crews battling for bragging rights, to young troubled woman coping with life's problems in the inner city through the art of dance while finding love from boy next door! I seriously love them all. I know they can be cheesy and unrealistic, but COME ON! THEY MAKE YOU FEEL INSTANTLY HAPPY!  :)

Strictly Ballroom is the story of a young hot shot dancer (Scott) who wants to dance his own moves and the beginner (Fran) who wants to prove herself as a dancer! Ive seen Strictly Ballroom before many times but I was surprised at the wonderfully outrageous hair, make up and costumes in this movie. Its all so crazy I found myself laughing out loud just looking at the characters. I almost couldn't believe that I forgot how over the top they can get.
If you're into lots of glitter, hairspray, sequins and pink lipstick, please do yourself a favor and watch this movie! See if Scott and Fran make it to the dance championship! It'll make you feel good on many different levels. :)
Just be happy your hair doesn't look like theirs!
Remember, ALWAYS TAKE CARE OF YOUR HAIR!
