"We come on, ready to dance!"

Heather Lyn MacDonald's Been Rich All My Life (2006)--an 80-minute documentary film about The Silver Belles, former Harlem show dancers who, in their 80's and 90's, are still entertaining audiences with glamorous, jazzy style--is touching and ultimately uplifting. You can find it now on DVD at Toots Crackin Productions or through Netflix.

"And people say, 'Was doing it fun?' And I say, yes, it was, and I was free! Free! Like a bird coming out of its cage!" -- Bertye Lou Wood
