Invitation to the Dance (1956) is a musical anthology film directed by and starring Gene Kelly. The film presents three distinct stories told entirely through dance, without spoken dialogue. The first segment, "Circus," portrays a love triangle involving a clown, a ballerina and a trapeze artist. The second, "Ring Around the Rosy," follows a bracelet as it passes through various owners, revealing their romantic entanglements. The final segment, "Sinbad the Sailor," combines live-action dance with animation to depict the sailor's fantastical adventures. Notable for its ambitious storytelling through choreography, the film won the Golden Bear at the 6th Berlin International Film Festival.

Every VHS tape we sell is individually inspected, cleaned and rewound before being added to our inventory. We carefully check for mold and evaluate each tape for overall condition and presentation.
Original slipcovers are inspected to ensure they remain structurally sound and display well. Vintage rental stickers, price tags and other signs of a tape's history may still be present and are considered part of the authentic VHS experience. For Disney clamshell releases, cases will either be fully intact or replaced with a brand-new clamshell when necessary.
We're picky about condition, cleanliness and collectibility, and only offer tapes we'd be happy to add to our own shelves. While vintage media may show some age-related wear, we do our best to ensure every VHS tape arrives clean, complete and ready for movie night.
