'Tis the story of a girl who's devoured by an ambition to attend a dance in a pair of red shoes. She gets the shoes, goes to the dance - at first all goes well and she's very happy. At the end of the evening, she gets tired and wants to go home. But the red shoes are not tired. In fact, the red shoes are never tired. They dance her out into the streets, they dance her over the mountains and valleys, through fields and forests, through night and day. Time rushes by. Love rushes by. Life rushes by. But the red shoes dance on.

THE RED SHOES (1948) | dir. Michael Powell & Emeric Pressburger

Reportedly the favorite film of Francis Ford Coppola. When he first met Michael Powell, in a New York restaurant, Coppola introduced himself by walking across the room singing Sabu's song "I want to be a sailor" at the top of his lungs to show he was a fan.
