Breakdancin' where's it at. (Beat Street)

Beat street! The classic b-boy movie that everyone who's knows anything about breaking has seen. A movie chronicling the trials and tribulations of two brothers Kenny, MC and DJ, and Lee, b-boy, and their friends Ramo, graffiti artist, and their self-proclaimed manager, Chollie. I like this movie because it explores four elements( although there is a fifth lost element, knowledge, that wasn't acknowledged in the movie) of  early Hip Hop, DJing(Kenny), MCing(Kenny), Breaking(Lee), and Graffiti(Ramo.) It also shows some classic breakin', chock full of style and classic moves like windmill and hand glide, just crazy. It's a great b-boy movie, and if you haven't seen it, i suggest you watch it on Netflix.
