“Grease is the word!” Pompadoured tough-guy John Travolta learns the meaning of true love, 1950’s style, from summertime sweetheart Olivia Newton-John who turns up unexpectedly at Rydell High as the new girl in school when the Fall semester starts! The fantastic supporting cast includes Stockard Channing, Jeff Conaway, Eve Arden and Frankie Avalon. A soundtrack of wall-to-wall hits (“You’re The One That I Want,” “Hopelessly Devoted to You,” “Look at Me, I’m Sandra Dee,” Greased Lightning”) and plenty of dancing make director Randal Kleiser’s GREASE an irresistible teen-dream of a movie musical. GREASE, 1978, Paramount, 110 min.
