**Screenwriter**: Masayuko Suo **Producers**: Shoji Masui, Yûji Ogata Join us on the dance floor for the new 4K uncut restoration of Masayuki Suo’s endearing ode to dance and creative expression. Shohei Sugiyama (Koji Yakusho) seems to have it all – a high-paying job as an accountant, a beautiful home, a caring wife and a doting daughter he loves dearly. However, he feels something is missing in his life. One day while commuting on the train he spots a beautiful woman staring wistfully out a window and eventually decides to find her. His search leads him head-first into the world of competitive ballroom dancing. An “infinitely touching” (*Washington Post*) modern classic from director Masayuki Suo, SHALL WE DANCE? is a feel-good romantic comedy that “will sweep you off your feet” (*Austin Chronicle*). A box office sensation in North America upon its initial release (which led to a Hollywood remake with Richard Gere), Film Movement Classics presents SHALL WE DANCE? in a new 4K restoration of the original 137-minute film, available uncut for the first time in North America. **Picks from the Video Store** Love Dance on film?
