Paulk (Eddie), Jenna Dewan (Sasha), Alfre Woodard (Augustine James).Pierre is a ballroom-dance instructor with courtly manners whose pupils tend to be well-heeled teenagers. Partly as a dare and partly as a joke, he is offered the job of supervising a South Bronx high school detention class, where the students regard him as a visitor from the moon. They resist him, but he fascinates them, and before long, Pierre has talked them into learning a few steps. He even suggests that if they work hard enough, they might have a shot in a citywide dance competition, which offers a first prize of $5,000. As they morph into Astaire's and Charisse's, and as Pierre's lessons instill self-mastery, self-restraint, and self-respect, these previously aimless kids blossom into confident, self-possessed young adults.MPAA rating: Rated PG-13.DVD, region 1; NTSC; Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround, Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo surround; widescreen presentation (aspect ratio 1.85:1).
