This 1980s romantic drama may be a case of style over substance, but its MTV-style gloss ensured it became a huge success with cinema audiences. Jennifer Beals plays a welder by day and an exotic dancer by night, who dreams of being accepted at a top dance school. But she needs all the help she can get if she's to achieve her goal and avoid working the city's seedy clubs. The soundtrack packs in the hits, with Irene Cara's title song "Flashdance ... What a Feeling" earning the film an Oscar. i love this film but you will need an adult to watch it with because it is a 15!!
