With Every Little Step, which I saw during the Miami Gay & Lesbian Film Festival last month, filmmakers James D. Stern and Adam Del Deo (The Year of the Yao) explore the enthralling journey of A Chorus Line, from its experimental genesis to the 2006 Broadway revival against which this documentary is set.

Every Little Step goes behind the scenes with exclusive interviews and footage of the revival’s audition process, revealing the dramatic journey of the performers.
In a day and age in which revolting so-called reality TV rules, it is nice to see something that actually depicts real struggle, something for which real people – not fame-hungrybots but worthy performers – work hard, and something that is truly, really inspiring.
Bennett knew there was something life-changing to looking inward.
Every Little Step reminds us of that. And that’s just swell.
My Rating ***1/2
