It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

After a discussion with his spoiled wife Virginie (Brigitte Bardot), the playboy dentist Hervé Dandieu (Henri Vidal) goes to a bar where he meets the sexy dance teacher Anita Flores (Dawn Addams). She invites Hervé to dance with her and while dancing, his father-in-law arrives in the place and Hervé sneaks out with Anita. Hervé drives Anita home, and she invites him to have one last drink; Anita seduces him and they kiss each other on the sofa, while her hidden partner takes pictures of the intimacy of the couple. Hervé leaves Anita without having sex, but is blackmailed by her. She schedules a meeting with him in the dance school, but Virginie listens to their conversation and believes that Hervé is cheating her. Virginie is snoops Hervé in the dance school, and he finds Anita dead and becomes the prime suspect of the police. Virginie asks for a job in the dance school and decides to investigate the case by her own.The silly and naive "Voulez-vous Danser Avec Moi?" has a predictable screenplay and is supported by the charm and beauty of Brigitte Bardot. Dawn Addams has a minor participation, but she is astonishing with her blues eyes and beauty. In the end, forget this flawed story and enjoy Brigitte Bardot acting like a detective and Dawn Addams that you will have a nice entertainment. My vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Quer Dançar Comigo?" ("Do You Want to Dance with Me?")

"Voulez-vous danser avec moi" is really weird:it's not a comedy,but it looks like one sometimes,it's not a thriller ,but it looks like one sometimes.It includes murder,blackmail,transvestites ,a dancing school,an old "gothic" house,a dentist's office and a gay club ("le fétiche bleu"!!).PLus BB.The French Catholic Office of Cinema :thumbs down!I quote them: "showing such a tragedy as male homosexuality in a movie made for entertainment is intolerable!To avoid." But gays watching this movie have also good reasons to be infuriated .I'm not so sure that the 1960 audience leaving the theater did not heave a sigh of relief: " Those people are not like us.Look what they did here!"(remember what happened with "silence of the lambs" and " basic instinct") That said,the screenplay was written with care,BB acts naturally and she is a feast for the eye.She is given good support by Henri Vidal,the most handsome man of the era,singer Dario Moreno,Philippe Nicaud as a drag artist-singing Edith Piaf's "Mon Manège à Moi" - Georges Descrière and Maria Pacôme.

"Come Dance With Me" was probably meant as an airy mystery-comedy, but it's mostly stage-bound and talky. What's more, I guessed who the killer was (though admittedly not his motive) 15 minutes into the film, and if you've ever read even one Agatha Christie story before, you'll have no problem guessing it, either. This being a French film, it is slightly more sexually explicit than most American films of the period: we see a woman's (no, not Bardot's) bare nipple, and (heavy SPOILERS follow) the killer turns out to be a transvestite. Bardot's "amateur detective" role is somewhat of an acting stretch for her (her character has more functions than simply looking pretty and teasing men), but I still feel that for many viewers her scenes in a revealing black dress will be the most memorable ones. (**1/2)

Brigitte Bardot lights up the screen (while keeping her threads on mostly) as a wife who plans to clear her husband's name while working at a dance studio..and she can really mambo. Very complicated plot, but well-paced. Hits some night spots which few films did at the time (cross-dressing) with overall decent acting and beautiful color.A 6 out of 10. Best performance = BB. The guy who played BB's husband (the dentist) died right after this. He was married to Michele Morgan, I believe. Brigitte is sexy, intelligent, fun, dilligent, and focused in this surprising little gem (without being art). Dawn Addams is an added treat. The DVD copy I watched was clear as a bell which many of Ms. Bardot's film transfers are not. Seek it out for an interesting and fun surprise.
