While it might sound like a typical story of boy meets girl with racial tension, it`s told in such a way as to still retain a freshness to it. Now that it`s out on DVD, I can see that I missed out the first time around. As with a lot of Paramount movies, there are loads of subtitles here, 15 in all with 3 language tracks.Ĭonclusion I remember seeing the billboard ads for Save The Last Dance earlier in the year but I never went to see it because I just couldn`t get myself to go see it. Not my kind of trailer and not something to watch if you haven`t seen the movie already. Lastly we get the trailer which is the usual kind of trailer thing (it`s a shame it`s not anamorphically enhanced), giving away too much and showing footage not in the film. The "Crazy" music video by K-Ci & Jo-Jo is okay but could have been enhanced for widescreen. Cast and crew interviews are quite good though at 12 minutes long, it`s a bit short. The Making of is the PR bit and lasts just 20 minutes and is pretty good, though it`s a shame some of these elements can`t be combined to make a better documentary. It`s easy to see how a couple of these were left on the cutting room floor, though one or two of them could have been used to flesh some more character in the story. There are four deleted scenes here and I have to say these are well made for the disc being anamorphic. This is something that I would like to see since I really got into the characters and wanted to see more of their story. We also learn how the film was originally cut a lot longer. A lot of what he has to say really fleshes out more of the ideas in the film and reinforces certain thoughts of youth, relationships and in particular interracial relationships. Director Commentary with Thomas Carter is pretty interesting. In the Special Features menu we get Director Commentary with Thomas Carter, deleted scenes, The Making of Save The Last Dance, cast and crew interviews, the "Crazy" music video and the theatrical trailer. Features We`re hit with quite a nice animated menu at the start with music.
