From the perspective of picture and narrative art, "Warm-up Dance 2 Love Havana" is not very special or outstanding, but its music and dance design is a classic. In the musical style, according to the needs of the plot, it uses Rock, R&B (rhythm and blues), Hip---hop, and Latin styles, with dances such as Merengue, Manbo, Rock, Rumba, Latin dance, etc. . The language of all movies is integrated into music and dance, music and dance conquer everything! In my opinion, two of the songs and dances are the most classic:
Katie is not interested in the dance parties of the upper class. When she comes to the underground bar in Havana with her friends, she just ran into Jervey who was dancing here. Jevi invited Katie to dance. Although she was attracted to Cuban dance, Katie didn’t know how to dance, but she was guided into the dance floor by Jevi. At this time, the music sounded, and a black female singer sang "Represent, Cuba" (highly recommended), a passionate Latin song. The use of this song here replaces other movie languages. First of all, judging from the name of the song, "Description, Cuba", Katie and the movie audience did not have a detailed understanding of Cuban culture before this. The passionate and unrestrained melody of the song gave Katie and the audience who watched the movie the overall musical impression; secondly, judging from the lyrics, the general idea is: dance with me, let me introduce myself, the underground soul of Cuba, Cuba, and Havana, Music, music, Cuba, music, Cuba! This implies the relationship between Cuban culture and music. With the music, the whole audience danced with Cubans. The tempting close dance showed the primitive impulse of Latin culture. This is the best expression of music and the best interpretation of Cuban character and culture.
In the National Dance Competition, the female singer sang "Do You Only Wanna Dance". At this time, Katie had been trained and her dancing skills had matured, and she and Jevi danced unhurriedly. The melody of "Do You Only Wanna Dance" is full of temptation and the rhythm is tight. It contains two meanings. One is to match the difficult dance; the other is the word "Do You Only Wanna" from a woman to her sweetheart. Dance" (After a period of communication, the two have become emotional, but they did not say anything), and from the development of the film, this will be their last dance, because the revolution is about to break out, so this song also implies The urgency of the love between the lovers makes the audience worry. There is nothing to say, an ordinary commercial drama, but it will definitely give people the deepest impression, because in the name of music and dance!
