Flashdance got over $150 million in local film industry receipts for Paramount. The film has stayed famous since its release and it keeps on being appeared on TV and disseminated through video deals and rentals (Marder v Lopez, 2006). As indicated by Marder, the Flashdance story was designed according to her biography and vocation as a dance club artist.
