The phenomenal cast brings the characters to life, leaving a lasting impact on the viewers. Leroy Johnson, played by Gene Anthony Ray, steals the show with his incredible dance moves and unwavering determination. Coco Hernandez, portrayed by Irene Cara, enchants the audience with her captivating voice and mesmerizing performances.

From Doris Finsecker (Maureen Teefy) mastering her craft in acting to Montgomery MacNeil (Paul McCrane) discovering his passion for composing, Fame reveals the arduous journey one must take to shine in the spotlight.

What elevates this film to greatness is its sensational soundtrack. The songs are the soul of Fame, effortlessly conveying the emotions and struggles of the characters. Irene Cara's powerful rendition of the title track "Fame" became an anthem synonymous with the film. Undeniably catchy and filled with raw energy, this iconic song has become a timeless classic.

Interestingly, Fame didn't stop at just one medium. It eventually expanded into a successful television series that aired from 1982 to 1987. The show continued to explore the lives of a new generation of students at the High School of Performing Arts. While it featured a different cast, the essence of Fame remained intact, inspiring viewers with its captivating storytelling and unforgettable music.

Isolate and concentrate on the details.
It beats watching Laverne & Shirley.
It can't be Gloria over here. He's not into chicks.
It is better than real school. It's free, and you don't get ****d in the hallways.
It might be a movie or a Broadway musical.
It said my two chicks were in church.
It starts at midnight, so you better check it out with your mom.
It was a time when I realized something about myself.

Little bitty ones with nips like raisins?
Look at it, they like it! Bruno, they like it! Bruno!
Look at the people. They don't know it's not ready.
Look at you! You got so big! Where is Mom? Is she home?
Look, I'm not "my dear." You can fuck "my dear."
Look, Leroy, I told you, if you don't have tights, you don't dance. Now go!
Looks like somebody finally corked up old Finsecker.

Maybe even a ballet created especially for me.
Maybe even the best in the school.
Maybe I didn't say it right, but you been down hard on me since day one.
Maybe I die undiscovered, and my ghost gets the Grammy.
Maybe I don't think people will like my stuff.
Maybe they have a telephone.
Maybe you never know.

My nose is ordinary. My body's ordinary. And my voice, it's... Yuck!
My sister lives here. I'm always welcome.
My son's head is into the future. And Papa could never play the accordion.

Nobody talks about it, but there's a quota system.
Not animal type rats. I'm talking about real rats...
Not Dominique...

Not if you're good.
Not one ruble have I lost, not one.

Or has an abortion, God forbid.
Or has time rewritten every line?
Or the first time my mother flew to L.A. and didn't come back for six weeks.
Or the Silbermans. Or Brooklyn.
Or you could wear your pink dress with the ribbons.

Pizza sounds good. You wanna eat?
Please pay attention. We have a lot to do today.
Please welcome the comedy stylings of Ralph Garci, ladies and gentlemen.
Please welcome the comedy stylings...
Please, excuse me, if you don't mind. Honey, you don't have to sing for us...
Pocketful of Quaaludes.
Pulled tendons, shin splints, swollen toes, smelly tights...
Ralph Garci. I think they spelled it wrong on the application.
Ralph, you're not supposed to kiss yet.
RALPH: And...
RALPH: Calling Montgomery MacNeil.
RALPH: Don't **** anybody, okay? I'll see you later. Take care.
RALPH: I need something.
RALPH: I never knew it would be like this, Doris.
RALPH: If you're kicked around enough, you get to be a real professor of pain.
RALPH: Nice. Get off!
Ralph. Doris. Ralph, you have a whole speech here you haven't even done.
Rats, cockroaches, and, you know, little bugs.
Raul!
Raul?
Raul?
Reach for the jeté!
Relax and breathe.
Relax! Come on, use your body.
Replacement? What do you mean, replacement?
Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo? Deny thy father and refuse thy name.
Same to you, pal! Go ahead.
Santa Claus just ripped everybody off.
See if you can catch yourself in the very act of doing or saying something.
See if your actions and reactions fall into patterns and what those patterns are.
See through for me, maybe low cut. We gotta give them visuals.
See you.
See, I'm not naturally graceful.
See, I've spent my whole life in military academies.
Seen your shrink lately?
Sense the floor against your bodies.
Sentimental shit.
She didn't do it for me. She wants my father to think she cares.
She gets multiple orgasm every time she buys something.
She lost all her credit cards.
She needs a doctor! A doctor! Not the goddamn Holy Ghost!
She recuperated in Palm Springs, where she had her purse stolen.
She says I'm doing my last dance on this dark little planet.
She tells me in every letter how sorry she is that we're not together more...
She thinks about the kids...
She'll take every dime
She's a beautiful kid. She's 5 fucking years old.
She's a disaster.
She's got a one a day lunch
She's got a one a day lunch
She's got a pretty little laugh. She still laughs, as a matter of fact.
She's taking out the lint. Oh, that's beautiful. I wish I had a camera.
She's too beautiful. Look at that ass.
She's with her husband.
SHERWOOD: Garcia, Raul.
SHERWOOD: Johnson, Leroy.
SHERWOOD: Martelli, Bruno. Bruno. Come on.
SHIRLEY: Thanks, ma'am. SHERWOOD: Name?
