The classic behind-the-scenes Broadway musical gets a fascinating behind-the-scenes documentary worthy of its status. A Chorus Line broke new ground in 1974 when it created the workshop format to tell the stories of seventeen prospective stars auditioning for a role in a Broadway musical. In 2006, A Chorus Line had its first full revival and Every Little Step directors James D. Stern and Adam Del Deo filmed the open auditions, as a crew of first-timers tried out again. The comparisons between the new cast, the original cast - some of whom are in the revivals crew - and the characters they play, are fascinating. Forget the crass sensationalism of American Idol; this is an unmissable, real documentary about exceptional people with extraordinary talent.
