First movie with breakdancing?

posted 3 years ago by darb112 (95)

Is this the first movie to feature a breakdancing sequence? At one point, breakdancing is done on skates. I searched online and some say FLASHDANCE was the first to feature breakdancing in 1983, but Roller Boogie clearly has a breakdancing sequence, albeit not very long. I'm curious if it was the first movie or does anyone know any older than 1979?
