About The Last Chance Dance
JD wants to invite his crush, the prettiest girl in the school to the ball but he's too shy to do anything about it. To assist with his request, since this is a longtime situation with him, there's his best friend, a girl who's friend of his crush. This film started the director's professional career when Steven Spielberg saw it and offered him his first directing job in two episodes of Spielberg's anthology NBC series Amazing Stories.
Directed by Phil Joanou, The Last Chance Dance leans on a strong ensemble — Tony Kienitz, Susan Ursitti, Emily Longstreth — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 1984.
