Shoulder Dance

Sexy beautiful story about relationships and healing, and new paths forward. The writing and directing are excellent! Looking forward to a sequel or perhaps a prequel of this wonderful story. Lots of curiosity around the past and how these characters developed and how they could be developed for another film very nicely done. It would be especially interesting to see how the female character lead got her start and how she evolved into the first thing that she is in the film. It would also be interesting to see the event that split Ira and Roger apart and caused this very long pause in their relationship, would love to see more from Director Jay Arnold .

It's a good film. It has a great and honest perspective on what matters truly at the core of our most real, most human relationships.

I wish Arnold would write in more BIPOCS with his lead characters and stories though. It's been missing for most of his films (there's background BIPOC characters in Big Gay Musical sure but it seemed an afterthought). So here's hoping to finally see forethought and fleshed out major BIPOC roles in this upcoming works.

It'll be great to see nuances in shapes, sizes and colours with his cast members and it frankly would be interesting to see how Arnold's brilliant writing and storytelling craft will evolve within a multicultural and pluralistic milieu.

Funny, refreshing, and heartfelt. Definitely worth a watch. The story is relatable but doesn't feel like a retread, and the performances definitely pop. Samuel Larsen is a comedic standout, and Maggie Geha's Lilly is a breath of fresh air; she feels like the kind of friend you can only hope swoops in out of the blue to surprise you. Overall, it's a wistful story about love, friendship, growing up, and holding on to what's the most important to you. Plus, it's a ton of fun, and the joy onscreen is infectious. It's hard not to fall in love with these characters and see why they love each other too. Glad it's available on streaming platforms now; check it out.

I loved the amalgamation of the beautiful camera shots, talented cast, and story line that was equal parts, sexy, funny, and endearing. By the end of the movie, you'll identify with one of the characters struggles, as well as yearn to live in the dreamy beach house. It's not at all a thriller, but still leaves you holding your breath, and bitting your nails at certain points. The whole production feels very reminiscent of Tom Ford's movies to me. Every scene, sound, movement, and lighting change is a vibe. This is a newer director for me, but after watching The Shoulder Dance, I want to check out more of Jay Arnold's films. Go watch! This was the perfect move to laugh, cry, and think fondly of yesterday. :)

Saw this movie at a film festival and we soon as it was available on DVD we bought it! Can't get enough of the stellar cast and story line of the characters.
