Footloose

Tonight we watched the original Footloose movie from 1984.  It's a current free Amazon Prime offer, which I can access with Roku.  I've been familiar with the music from Footloose for years, but I'd never seen the movie until tonight.  I'm not sure why, especially since I'm a Kevin Bacon fan.

For sure, Footloose is not an Academy Award winning film.  But it is entertaining and has clearly stood the test of time.  There was even a remake released in 2011, which I've heard isn't as good as the original.  Maybe we'll check it out next weekend and see for ourselves.
