They, Too, Are Gonna Live Forever: Three First-Look Images from Fame

Movieline is proud to present a trio of never-before-seen images from MGM's Kelsey Grammerific reimagining of Alan Parker's 1980 musical, Fame. Set in the highly competitive training grounds of the New York City High School of Performing Arts, Fame follows a class of multi-talented showbiz hopefuls as they fling their sweat-drenched legwarmers through torturous jazz-ballet rehearsals, strain to recall their lines through angsty readings from 16 Stage Monologues for Men, and weather the spittle-flecked invective of Mr. Shorofsky as he wails, "No! No! No! Hold the bow like this! Not like this! This isn't your dick you're holding! It's a violin bow! Hold it with respect!"* The exclusive photos are after the jump.

*Scene may not actually appear in 2009 remake.
