To get enough money to keep the club, Samantha comes up with an Eighties version of a Depression-era dance marathon.

#Heavenly bodies movie tv#

The scheming Debbie (Laura Henry) is an aerobic instructor at SamanthaвЂ™s competitor health club, the Sporting Life, and is so jealous that she lost the TV gig to her rival that she plans to put SamanthaвЂ™s club out of business by buying it out from under her. As a result, Samantha lands a gig as an aerobics instructor on the local morning TV show. Samantha Blair (Cynthia Dale), KC (Patricia Idlette) and Patty (Pam Henry) quit their dead-end office jobs and rent a rundown industrial warehouse on the unfashionable side of town and convert it into an aerobics dance studio and name it Heavenly Bodies, with single-mom Samantha the featured instructor. It should appeal to the airhead crowd and those who couldnвЂ™t get enough of Flashdance (1983). ItвЂ™s absurdly written by Ron Base and Lawrence Dane. ItвЂ™s DaneвЂ™s only film helmed, which is not hard for me to understand why. вЂњ A trite and plotless cult musical about aerobics mixed with a tepid romance story thatвЂ™s directed by Canadian character actor Lawrence Dane.вЂќДЄ trite and plotless cult musical about aerobics mixed with a tepid comical romance story thatвЂ™s directed by Canadian character actor Lawrence Dane, as if a TV sitcom.
