Death of a Vegas Showgirl

About the movie

Atlanta raised Debbie Flores Narvaez has put aside her college degrees in finance and law for the life of a dancer, she having now been in Las Vegas for a year in that pursuit. That year has led to making some deep friendship among the dancers, including Kevin the dance captain of the show she's performing in, Jon, Alicia and her best friend, roommate and fellow chorus dancer Roxie. Debbie may be on the cusp of a big break in her career when Kevin offers her the lead in the next big production number he's choreographed specifically with her in mind, she getting that chance if she impresses him enough in rehearsals after a trial basis. At the same time, she meets Jason Griffith who goes by the stage name Blu, the lead dancer in another show. There is instant chemistry between the two of them which leads to them entering into a relationship. Roxie in particular is wary of Blu, she believing that passionate Debbie may yet again be falling for a player, one of her previous boyfriends who was convicted of assaulting her in their volatile relationship. Roxie may be correct in Debbie and Blu's relationship being characterized by declarations of love, followed by heated arguments and break-ups, only for each, especially Debbie, pining for the other obsessively. That obsession may be the downfall for both, for Debbie not only in relation to her big break with that leading role, but with her life in its entirety.—Huggo
