At times it feels more like an embalming than a celebration of her work and her life . You're not presented with any background , or much biography but it is on the internet it is about the performance of four of Pina's works intercut with other scenes and anecdotes from the dancers , which are occasionally poignant . You could be forgiven with all the gloating about 3D coming to the art house movies that this film is any better than the standard 3D

You feel like you are transported back into the 1950s in a living room fashionable for that time , and populated by people you would expect to see . As the play gets going however it becomes apparent that this is going to be a darkly comic night at the theatre that looks at property , neighbourhoods and the enduring value of real estate . It was worth finally getting a chance to see it before it ends its run . To give too much away about the story would spoil the fun but it is inspired and plays off the the events that take place in A Raisin in the Sun While I was not so

I wonder if Mr Branson made them an offer they couldn't refuse or if Flora simply didn't want to continue sponsoring it. It was a lovely day, must have been about 20 degrees. I watched it near the end, at Birdcage Walk near Buckingham Palace. It's good to cheer and applaud the runners as they are about to finish. Also noticed preparations for the Royal Wedding, with a media gallery being fabricated directly across from Westminster Abbey.
