ANGELIKA’S NOTE

A heartwarming tale of finding true joy later in life, Richard Gere (CHICAGO, PRETY WOMAN) stars as John Clark – a man who seems to have it all: the perfect job, the perfect family, but something’s missing. One day on the way home from work, he discovers a passion he never knew he had: ballroom dancing. Featuring Jennifer Lopez (HUSTLERS, OUT OF SIGHT), Susan Sarandon (THELMA & LOUISE, DEAD MAN WALKING), and Stanley Tucci (BIG NIGHT, JULIE & JULIA), SHALL WE DANCE? is a lovely experience for all. Orlando Sentinel praises, "The central idea -- that losing yourself in a small, private world can help you to better engage the larger world -- isn't lost in translation."

SYNOPSIS

John Clark is a meek workaholic who feels trapped in a dull, mind numbing existence. One night, his whole life changes after the sight of a beautiful dance instructor inspires him to break out of his mold and sign up for some fancy footwork. Featuring Golden Globe winner Richard Gere, Golden Globe nominee Jennifer Lopez, Academy Award winner Susan Sarandon and Oscar nominee Stanley Tucci.
