This week on the pod we're diving into the DANCED THAT CHANGED IT ALL in movies/TV. You know what we're talking about: two characters with a ton of SIZZLING tension, who have been at odds with each other the entire time, suddenly find themselves DANCING and the sparks begin to FLY. We talk what makes this moment so special, why dance is the most sensual of languages, and why this trope really never, EVER gets old. We cover everything from Titanic to Maxton Hall, and there is plenty of swooning along the way! Enjoy!
