Rize," a documentary directed by the fashion photographer David LaChapelle, begins with an unusual disclaimer: "The footage in this film has not been sped up in any way." The reason for such reassurance soon becomes clear. Twenty-four frames per second, the rate at which film traditionally moves through a camera seems too sluggish for Mr. LaChapelle's purpose, which is to record a form of dance that flourishes in some African-American neighborhoods in greater Los Angeles.
