good, but not a BB-vehicleFriday, June 04, 2004
This well-made movie has one flaw: it's a little unconvincing, for it does not suit the talents of Brigitte Bardot. Renowned for her light comedies, playing a crime plot just isn't Brigitte's trade. I think her style too light, too gay for acting out the necessary mystery, horror and suspense.
In spite of that 'Voulez-vous danser avec moi?' still makes good watching. It provides good quality-acting, and its well-built story claims the viewer's interest from beginning to end. It also seriously deals with homosexuality, which is pretty groundbreaking for 1959. For this reason I guess Paris was the only location possible.

retro fun!Sunday, November 26, 2000
The storyline almost does not matter: it is all a pretext to showcase Brigitte Bardot's (stunning) curves. She can't act, but she is so cute! And she is also surrounded by a wonderful cast of character actors well known to the French cinema afficionado of the 50s: Dario Moreno as an overwhelmed mambo instructor, Noel Roquevert as the Forever Furious Father , Georges Descrieres as the suave but morally bankrupt playboy, Serge Gainsbourg -very young- as a loathsome creep...it's all good fun, and the visual quality of this DVD is also fabulous (hey, this is not "Death in Venice", but it is certainly colorful!). I recommend the movie as a very entertaining piece of kitsch, for kitsch and Bardot lovers alike.
