description
This film adaptation of GREASE is the zippy smash hit translation from the Broadway musical tribute to the fabulous 1950s. As a new school year begins, wholesome Australian exchange student Sandy (pop star Olivia Newton-John) and duck-tailed, leather-jacketed Danny (John Travolta) parlay their summertime romance into an on-and-off attraction that may or may not cross clique lines. Sandy seriously cramps Danny's style, so he dumps her. In response, Sandy begins dating a wholesome athlete, but, as a hedge, she also joins the gum-chewin', tough-talkin' clique known as the Pink Ladies. One of the most beloved musicals of all time, the popular soundtrack includes "You're the One that I Want," "Hopelessly Devoted to You," "Sandy," "Summer Nights," and the title tune.


critical reviews
"...Zesty choreography and very excellent new plus revived music....Newton-John registers very impressively..." - Variety

"...A life that is all its own....Loaded with the kind of talent and exuberance you don't often find very far from a musical stage..." - New York Times

"...It's a gum-snapping slice of cinema that’s impossible to watch without smiling..." - Premiere

"...Pleasant and upbeat....Travolta is an important and enduring movie star..." - Chicago Sun-Times

"...The enduring appeal of the teenybopping musical spawned a knock-off sequel, a Broadway revival, and countless high school productions..." - Entertainment Weekly

"An era-blending, hip-twitching piece of pop culture, GREASE is still the word 25 years since its release..." - Total Film

"Never underestimate the power of catchy tunes, Travolta's hips, and a sweet-yet-smutty script." -- Grade: B+ - Entertainment Weekly

    ""Rocking and rolling and what-not." "Maybe you better put out a missing person's report." And the music! "Stranded at the drive in... branded a fool. What will they say... Monday at school?""
