Product Description

FOOTLOOSE: Footloose jumps with spirit, dazzling dance numbers and an electrifying musical score. It portrays the timeless struggle between innocent pleasure and rigid morality, when city-boy Ren McCormick (Kevin Bacon) finds himself in an uptight Midwestern town where dancing has been banned. Ren revolts with best friend Willard (Chris Penn) and the minister's daughter (Lori Singer). A treasury of Top 10 songs-Kenny Loggins "Footloose," Shalamar "Dancing In The Sheets," Deniece Williams "Let's Hear It For The Boy," Bonnie Tyler "Holding Out for A Hero," and the Footloose love theme, "Almost Paradise." FLASHDANCE: A hit movie that became a cultural sensation, Flashdance delivers an electrifying mix of music, drama and dance that dazzles the senses as it touches the heart. Jennifer Beals stars as Alex Owens, a fiercely determined 18-year-old with one all-consuming dream: to study at the Pittsburgh Conservatory of Dance. Working during the day as a welder and at night as an exotic dancer. Alex bravely pursues her dream, undertaking an unforgettable journey that reveals the power of her convictions and teaches her the meaning of love. Directed by Adrian Lyne (Fatal Attraction, 9 ½ Weeks) and featuring the Oscar –winning song "Flashdance—What a Feeling," Flashdance is sparkling entertainment.

3.0 out of 5 stars Poor transfer to DVD, January 1, 2009

By	J. Cummings "artgeekseattle" (Seattle, WA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I haven't yet looked at the Flashdance portion of this DVD, but Footloose is a very poor transfer. There is dirt and spots throughout the film and most scenes are very soft and blurry. At least it's presented in anamorphic widescreen.

4.0 out of 5 stars Classics still work after all these years, October 2, 2009

With the current trend on TV of bringing dance to popularity, it's refreshing to go back to classics.
