Synopsis
A Chorus Line (1985) is a musical drama directed by Richard Attenborough that you can watch online on iFILM. The film adapts the legendary Broadway show by Marvin Hamlisch and Ed Kleban — a production that won nine Tony Awards in 1975 and ran for fifteen years straight.
Choreographer Zach narrows a field of dancers down to seventeen on a bare Broadway stage, then asks each one to talk about their life. What comes out is raw: broken families, wounded ambitions, years of training that may end today on someone else's say-so. Michael Douglas plays Zach; Alyson Reed is Cassie, his ex-lover who has swallowed her pride to audition for him.
Attenborough keeps the theatrical tension alive on screen — you feel the weight of every callback and every cut. The numbers are sharp, the silences between them sharper. Watch A Chorus Line (1985) online on iFILM.
