Shoulder Dance

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. :)

Are there really people who can watch this silly spectacle for 100 agonising minutes? And then give it ten points? The director must have some good friends.

I'm sick of watching such pumped-up, rich American snobs babbling to themselves.

What a load of rubbish. Couldn't make it through half of the movie. A film to delete and forget immediately. I would have walked out of the cinema.

We find out right at the start that josh and ira do not have an equal relationship. Ira is a busy, big shot agent, and makes decisions without consulting josh. And seems to be ashamed of josh's work... whatever that is. When a straight friend comes to visit, he's very touchy feely, even in front of his girlfriend. It's a bit like the big chill. All those people coming together in one spot, you just know something is going to happen! This one starts kind of slow, but then things start to happen about halfway through. The boys start doing things they claim they never do. And of course, one thing leads to another. It's really well done ! Recommend this one! Written and directed by jay arnold.

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 .

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.
