People use to feel depressed with this end. I just don't get it. To me this is the most wonderful way to die. The best show in his life was HIS LIFE. And there's Jessica Lange to give him welcome to his after life. Who can ask for more?
The ending was the bodybag zipping up. This is him imagining how a grand finale of his life would go, but in reality, he swiftly dies. What's worse is the final words he imagines himself giving to his lovers, things like "at least I won't have to lie to you anymore", the singer going "there goes his mrs with someone new". It's a tragedy
This song reminds me of a girl I dated. I knew from the beginning that it was never going to last but I wanted to see if I could love her unconditionally and be able to let her go knowing that it was the right thing to do that she would have to go and find herself someday. She didn't know what she wanted and there was no point in trying to rehabilitate her or point her in the right direction she had so many ideas running around in her own head She didn't need anything from me so I just loved her unconditionally and then I set her free. I hope she finds her peace. I think this will always be my favorite song by The Bangles It's the only one I want to learn how to play myself.
I’ve seen this movie at least 5 times (I don’t know how many more, actually)! One cannot remember “All That Jazz” without remembering Annie Reinking. 😢🙏🕊✝️👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🌟 No female dancer could even come close to her, in my opinion. Of course, she worked harder than most at achieving her perfection; but Annie was just given all the perfect body sections to make a top-rated dancer. Her legs were about a mile long, and she knew how to use them! Her leaps were higher than any other Broadway artiste! There was (nor never will be, I don’t believe) anyone like her in dance. She was an exceptionally good actor as well! I am a straight-up heterosexual woman, but one can easily see how Bob Fosse fell head-over-heels in love with her! Even her gritty voice is sexy in a lovely, ladylike way! If you watch Anne Reinking dance in this scene (she is cast in two roles here - one in the audience as Scheider’s former lover, now curled up cozily with another man - - and of course, she is also cast one-half of the “arterial/venous twins” who dance with Ben. Vereen). I wouldn’t want to be “the other half” of Anne Reinking! If you watch these two move, it’s absolutely amazing how Annie’s leg is always straighter or bent tighter than her counterpart’s! However, they were both in just about perfect synchronization during the section where they both come out side by side, bending their outer lower limbs to a walk that is graceful and elegant. (But Annie’s leg does come up higher, and she gives it her own kind of “twist” as she lowers it back to the floor. Rest now, Anne Reinking......you inspired so many, you entertained millions, you worked your backside off. Thank you for every step of your wonderful performances. We will never stop missing you. 🌹
Dei personaggi politici mostrati nel video, l'unico di sinistra era Berlinguer! I restanti sono solo dei vermi mutanti sotto spoglie di falsi comunisti
The footage used is not of them performing "If She Knew What She Wants" in 2006, it's a footage of them performing the track in the year 2000. This is why Michael is playing with them.
Fosse seemed to indulge greatly in the dark side of life. This movie makes no apologies for that. Still sad that he was excessive to the pt of death- he seemed obsessed with entertainment. It was said he was very displeased with his limited dancing abilities.
I saw this movie for the first time back in the early 80s when I was a teenager. I was fascinated by this number, but a bit freaked out, especially when the scene abruptly cut from the outro of the song to the near silence of the morgue. All these years later, this scene washes over me in a VERY different way. It's both thrilling and chilling, and I believe it's one of the best scenes ever filmed in movie history. After watching the entire film again, I also believe Fosse was way ahead of his time.. I was delighted to learn that Kubrick said 'All That Jazz' is the best movie he'd ever seen!
