* “Image Pops Dance Video”

Millennium Films. $14.95.

This non-audio video strings together black-and-white clips of early-to-mid 20th-Century dancers such as tap-dancing hoofers and leggy chorus girls. Supposedly, the fun is in selecting your own prerecorded tunes to accompany these kinetic images. But it’s hard to imagine this 30-minute montage being the life of anyone’s party. Why not just spin a Mozart opera to a tape of a hockey game or MTV and save $15 in the process? There are five other Image Pops videos including “Sports,” “Comedy,” “Sci-Fi,” “The 50’s,” and “The 60’s.”
