Swing Kids
In my perpetual search for film with Christian Bale, I was turned on to the film Swing Kids. In 1939 Germany, the joy of swing dancing contrasts the ugly face of war. The young seek the dance as a retreat, the Nazis try to control them. The passion of the kids for their art is portrayed well, and rules over all government and politics. Well done.
