Grease is one of the best movies of the 1970s. It is a classic musical movie portrayed in a rather romantic and comedy manner. It was released in 1978 beautifully directed by Randal Kleiser starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John in the lead. Step Up, released in 2006, directed by well-known Anne Fletcher, stars Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan Tatum as the leads. Both movies have most certainly lived up to their respective reputations while Grease is still considered one of the finest movies
I watched the film Grease which was directed by Randal Kleiser. This film took place at Rydell high which was full ot, fun, crazy students. In the beginning, Sandy Dumbrowski the new girl in school, arrives to school. She explains how over the summer she and and a boy named Danny Zuko had a brief love affair. But it turns out he is a leader of the greaser gang called the T-Birds. Sandy tells her new classmates about Danny how sweet he was and how was different but she doesn’t know that he lies and
To begin, the musical I went to watch was a high school version of the musical Grease. In the beginning, the male lead, Danny Zuko, meets a girl on the beach. At school, he tells his friends about her and how she doesn't live anywhere close to them. Little does he know that the girl, Sandy, recently moved and now attends his high school. Sandy (the lead female character) becomes friends with a bunch of popular girls, known as the “Pink Ladies”. When the "Pink Ladies" introduce Sandy to Danny at the
Grease, one of the most well known ‘coming of age’ movies, a movie about a new girl who moves to a new country, falls in love with a boy and makes new friends who empower her to embrace her true self and become who she really is. No. Grease is a movie that teaches young girls that it’s okay to change who you are just to grasp the attention of the boy you like, and that you must not be a prude. A movie that is full of sexual innuendos all to make the good girl look bad and have amazing stories to
What makes Grease and Footloose an all-time classic musical film to watch is the way they easily appeal to teenagers then to teenagers now. The catchy tunes, stunning john Travolta in grease, same relatable plots in footloose, along with the wild dance moves in both movies is what makes these two films ironically very similar. Both of the main protagonists in this movie move to new areas, where new influences effect not only their teen romance, yet as well as affect their ability to avoid unwanted
Film Review of Grease Girls, grab your poodle skirts! Guys, grab your hair grease and leather jackets! "Grease" is the word, and after nearly 25 years since its initial theatrical run, it's every bit as enchanting and fun as it ever was. The numbers speak for themselves: after two theatrical releases, one in 1978 and a reissue in 1998, the worldwide box office total for what is considered to be Hollywood's most successful musical stands at $341.1 million. You can argue with opinion, but
An Evaluation of Grease My film that I choose was Grease because it contains music, dancing and humor. It is a cross between comedy and teen movies. It is a tribute to the Broadway show of the 1950's. It was directed by Randal Klieser and was released on July 7th 1978. The music and dance scenes are what attracted me to Grease. My favorite characters are John Travolta and Jeff Conaway who play Danny and Kenickie. I like these two because they are your typical high school popular boys who

Thirty-eight years later Fox aired Grease: Live! sending an overly excited crowd. Between the two movies there were lots of differences. Extra scenes, getting to know each one of the characters, lines taken out or switched around, and new songs. When watching Grease: Live! I was astounded that it was going to be three hours long.

Comparison of Blood Brothers and Grease I have studied plays, two of them being Blood Brothers and Grease. I will be comparing and contrasting Blood Brothers with Grease, both of the plays are set in the restrictive 1950's. Blood Brothers is about twin brothers and their mother who are forced through poverty to give away on of the sons. One stays with his mother, a poor cleaner, and grows up in poor surroundings.

After, we will get another beaker and pour some 1% sugar solution in it.

For my film project, I will explore the 1978 film Grease directed by Randal Kleiser and produced by Allan Carr. The movie depicts the love story of an American teenage couple who unexpectedly reunite at high school after falling in love over the summer. Sandy, the female protagonist, is a new exchange student who must adapt to the social hierarchy of the public-school system. Throughout the film, the couple navigates the social rules of high school romances, friendships, and experiences while trying

Due to lack of supplies and money, the colonists never wasted materials that could be used again. The colonist saved grease and wood ashes; grease became used for lighting and was also the basis of soap, ashes became used as the soap ingredient called lye (Tunis 43). Salt was limited in the colonies, therefore not much salt became wasted on hardening soap; as a result they made it
