"Why do you want to dance?" "Why do you want to live?" "Well, I don't know exactly why, but... I must." "That's my answer too."

Second time around, noticed a few details I hadn't before.

You know a movie is good when you want to buy a copy before you've finished watching the rental.

My first Criterion. Looks amazing and the movie's great as well!

The dancing is so magical

Arthouse at it's best, I see hints of 42nd street, and it's grasp reaches into the present with the black swan, timeless is a title that suits this film well

DVR'ed this earlier today. Yay me!

Lmao, the ending always cracks me up no matter how hard I try not to giggle. Talk about taking a "swan dive"! Gorgeous movie. love it.

Always wanted red hair her color

So beautiful! The black swan movie was inspired in this one, right? Take a ballet and put on the plot as the characters dance the ballet

:D Llegué con las justas antes de que empiece The Red Shoes...

Just takin peek at begining. Never seen this before the lead has red hair and shoes. Not unique so far.....

Jack cardiff magnificent Technicolor restored

A perfect film to fall asleep to

Watch this once a year...one of my top 10 movies.

First time watching this ... Netflix. Also wrapping gifts. :)

Packing, studying, movie watching.

Watched it this weekend. Glad it was digitally restored so I could!

I've been wanting to see this for so long - glad I'm finally watching it!

I've never seen this movie in its entirety

Avast and Arrrgh! it may not have Pirates, but I can't not watch this movie. I'll catch a piratey movie later.

Damn, missed about an hour of it!

Fantastic movie about a ballerina who falls in love with a ballet composer but dances for a greedy impresario. Right up my alley!!!!!

Victoria Page WILL dance the dance of the red shoes tonight!

Powell and Pressburger's THE RED SHOES (1948). A absolutely must see classic. #TCM

Rainy day= classic film watching day :). Been meaning to see this film for a while!

Had never seen this, but my Grandmother always talked about it whenever she'd watch @SuzanneC_Rogers on #DaysOfOurLives. I see why now! :-)

I am watching The Red Shoes - one of the most beautiful movies ever

Omg I love this movie! Great ballet film!

Moira Shearer never ceases to amaze me.
