breakin' n enterin' (1983)
"Are you about ready to rock."
A very basic documentary about the LA street dance scene in '83. Previous doc's had concentrated on the NY originators. This flips over to the West Coast and catches it in the early days of creating its own style of poppin' and tuttin', as well as gangsta rap courtesy of Ice-T.
Whilst it doesn't show you anything that Style wars or Wild Style hadn't already covered, it at least shows that hip hop was definitely a national, if not global movement by 1983.
