"Rize"

I saw this movie last spring and I just have to mention it here. The legendary photographer, David LaChapelle, headed to L.A. to shoot a documentary about a style of hip-hop dance called “krumping.” What I really enjoyed in the movie is how the dancers’ physique contorted and twisted rapidly; also, LaChapelle’s talent for capturing vivacious colors was also apparent in the film. I was really amazed at how talented these people are. I don’t think that this film will come out in Kuwait, but I doubt that it won’t show up on the black-market list. Watch the trailer or this little clip. The soundtrack is pretty good too; I snagged it and actually managed to bounce around like the dancers in the movie but after a minute, I was out of breath :P
