Travolta went on to Grease, a 1978 adaptation of the Broadway musical. With unforgettably campy and catchy tunes (like "Greased Lightning," "Summer Nights," and "You're the One That I Want") and fabulously choreographed musical numbers, the '50s-nostalgia story about a group of graduating high school seniors remains fresh, fun, and incredibly imaginative. Travolta struts, swaggers, sings, and dances appropriately, while Olivia Newton-John portrays virgin innocence. And then there's Stockard Channing as Rizzo, the bitchy, raunchy leader of the Pink Ladies, who steals the film from both of its stars.
Travolta traded in disco duds for a cowboy hat in Urban Cowboy (1980), a corny love story about a workingman who breaks up with his girlfriend (Debra Winger), then plays out their relationship's turmoil inside a huge honky-tonk called Gilley's. The story essentially parallels Saturday Night Fever in its blend of ordinary life, incomplete relationships, and personal pride channeled into niche stardom at a neighborhood club, and the film is really a time capsule on a lot of levels--notably Travolta's career and late-'70s Western kitsch.
That Oscar-winning title song buzzes in your ears long after Flashdance (1983) has stopped. Jennifer Beals holds down a macho job as a welder by day but performs erotic dance numbers in a club at night. She dates her wealthy boss (Michael Nouri) and practices hard for the day she can audition for the upscale, local dance school. It is malarkey, of course, but as a romantic fantasy it works because you are carried along by the sheer force of the energetic, boisterous, MTV-style imagery by director Adrian Lyne.
For Footloose (1984), director Herbert Ross pulled a winning movie out of an almost self-consciously archetypal tale of teenage rock rebellion. Starring as a hip city kid who ends up in a Bible-belt town where rock is frowned upon and dancing is forbidden, Kevin Bacon rallies the kids and takes on the establishment. Between a good cast really embracing the dramatic screenplay and imaginative, highly charged dance numbers, you can get lost in this all-ages confection, and you won't even mind Kenny Loggins's bubbly pop.

Customer Reviews of DVD Dance Pack (Saturday Night Fever / Grease / Flashdance / Footloose / Urban Cowboy)
Good set! This really is a good set, since every movie in it had great success during the eighties. I shopped for individual titles and they are all still available at around fifteen dollars each, so if you pick up the set , you really are getting a great value. Both Grease and Saturday Night Live Fever have sequels that really never reached the same kind of acclaim as the originals, but they are not in this set. Stayin Alive can be bought separately, and Grease 2 is due out in mid June 2003. OK here was my problem with this set, the Dance PACK? With three of the five movies running with Travolta as the star, it would seem more of a Travolta pack. How about dropping the Grease and including Dirty Dancing (oops different company, that's why, my bad, sorry Paramount)? While Footloose, Flashdance, and Saturday Night Live, really do capture dancing aspects of American culture, Urban Cowboy and Grease gives us a Travolta marathon while a drama and musical begin to stretch the dance envelope. Hehe, oh well, small complaint, but they are all great movies. Anyway more importantly, I think all the movies are Widescreen, and here is a synopsis.
Includes: "Saturday Night Fever" (1977, 118 min) - Gradually, Tony becomes disillusioned with the life he is leading and he and Stephanie decide to help one another to start afresh. "Grease" (1978, 110 min.) - The quintessential hit movie musical about the fabulous '50s. "Flashdance" (1983, 94 min.) - Alex Owens is a female dynamo: steel worker by day, exotic dancer by night. "Footloose" (1984, 107 min.) - A big city kid learns that his town has outlawed dancing, he sets out to correct what he sees as unjust. "Urban Cowboy" (1984, 134 min.) - A country boy moves to the city, and meets and marries a cowgirl. When she allegedly meets with a con man who teaches her to ride the mechanical bull, the country boys signs up for a bull-riding contest in hopes of winning her back. (5 disc)
Tanto baile junto vale la pena
Cualquiera de las películas que incluye este paquete valdría la pena por el precio pagado por todas juntas. Especialmente Fiebre de Sábado por la Noche resulta espectacular, totalmente remasterizada y con un sonido que te hará revivir esas épocas en que peinabas tu cabello con pistola para el pelo y salías a la calle a "ligar" creyéndote TONY, desempolva tu antiguo traje de Poliester y tus zapatos en dos tonos y muévete al ritomo del "Disco".
awesome
I have been looking for 4 of the 5. 1 extra is great. The stars are great and I really enjoy all the muscials. I actually ordered 3 of them before but now I will give them to my daughter for XMAS and I will keep the 5 pack. What more can I say?
Awesome choices.
