Story Synopsis:
Shall We Dance is the story of Sugiyama, an over-worked, middle-aged accountant whose trip home from the office every night takes him past a building where a beautiful woman stares out of a window. When he finally gets up the nerve to investigate, Sugiyama learns that the fourth floor of the building houses a ballroom dancing school. Eager to take lessons from Mai, the woman in the window, he signs up for classes. Rebuffed in his romantic advances, Sugiyama develops a new, but secretive, passion for dancing. (Suzanne Hodges)
DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD picture exhibits pleasing image quality, with accurate fleshtones, well-balanced hues, and deep blacks. Sharpness is also quite satisfying, with nicely rendered details and definition. There is some edge enhancement noticed, which can be bothersome at times, but pixelization is limited. (Suzanne Hodges)
