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 - and therefore all youthful joy - 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 Streets, Deniece Williams Let's Hear It For The Boy, Bonnie Tyler Holding Out For A Hero, and the FOOTLOOSE love theme, Almost Paradise. *Includes poster
