I have been watching a lot of musicals in these few months.

Bob Fosse, an innovovative choreographer, once said that, “the time to sing is when your emotional level is too high to just speak anymore, and the time to dance is when your emotions are just too strong to only sing about how you feel.”

A Woman is a Woman, Jean-Luc Godard, 1961

There is a scene in which the female character Angela did the little dance, “choreography by Bob Fosse”, then the phone rings while she is frying an egg. She tosses the egg up and it sticks to the ceiling, she runs to the other room to answer the phone, says “just a second,” then she runs back into the kitchen in time to catch the egg, put it in a dish. And she return to the phone to finish her conversation with Alfred, the male character.

My Sister Eileen, Blake Edwards ,1955

In this movie, Bob Fosse choreographed the dance number featuring himself as Frank and Tommy Rall as Chick. They are rivals for the affections of Janet.
