Weekend fun part 5; Jean Claude Van Damme´s scene in Breakin´



In 1982, Van Damme and childhood friend,Michel Qissi,
relocated to America in the hope of becoming action stars.
They both were cast as extras in the film, Breakin´ in 84.


Van Damme´s part (edited);



Breakin', released as Breakdance: The Movie in some countries,
is a 1984 breakdancing-themed film.
It was directed by Joel Silberg.
The film setting was inspired by a German documentary entitled
Breakin' and Enterin
set in the Los Angeles multi-racial Hip Hop club Radiotron,
based out of Macarthur Park in Los Angeles.
Many of the artists and dancers,
including Ice-T (who makes his movie debut as a club MC)
and Boogaloo Shrimp went straight from
Breakin' and Enterin' to star in Breakin'.
Ice-T has stated that he considers
the film and his own performance in it to be "wak".

The story is a retelling of the 1961 film West Side Story.
Breakin' reverses the genders of the white/Puerto Rican couple.
