Q: Where can I find dancers, dancing, and costumes in mainstream movies? A: Aziza Sa'id: Here's a fairly complete list...

Movie Title Dancer Description
Valley of the Doomed Chelo Alonso  
Valley of the Kings   Samia Gamal Samia Gamal's appearance in the (I think) early sixties movie, In that, she appears quite briefly, on a boat, doing a couple of intricate hip lifts. Do I need to comment on the dancing? She does a routine in a Nile green outfit, actually on a felucca on the Nile! I sat for two hours at a drive-in (dating myself?) just to see the dance a second time....    -- Cartesio

Vampire Hunters Club, The Katrina Gourley (2001)
Veils of Bagdad Mari Blanchard Hollywood costume Arabic extravaganza.Victor Mature and Mari Blanchard.Two really excellent dances by Mari Blanchard.   GREAT Dances!Mari worked very hard on these routines, including heavy blistered feet - only, much to her disappointment, to have different music edited in afterwards- music she felt didn't fit the performance at all-
Videodrome Franciszka Hedland (1983) This cult movie, featuring James Woods & Deborah Harry is weird, weird, weird, but the dancer is worth your while. Turn it off after that.   

"Last night I caught a few notes of a familiar dance tune [my mind and eyes were only half on the tv] and this film was on. Can anyone tell me who the dancer was, it was only a brief glimpse as I missed most of it but it looked like she was in a pale coloured beledi type dress." --Ruth

"From the Internet Movie Database... Franciszka Hedland was the Bellydancer. The IMDb doesn't have any more info about her; if you do, the IMDb provides a mechanism to add that info to their database. Videodrome is the only movie listed for her..." --ecb

"The music used comes from an old tape called 'Super Belly Dance'. I love this tape but don't think it's available any more. Mine is almost worn out from playing it so much." --Shadia

Voluptuous Vixens II, (Playboy's)    starring Pandora Peaks, featuring Barocca
