Kevin Bacon hasn't always been in great movies, but he was always great in the movies he was in.
I was at a funeral today and almost lost it when the preacher started reading from ecclesiastes and realised the line about a time to dance.

Good. There is a time to dance. I joke but it is true. If I were to go tomorrow leep, dance, and celebrate but not weep and regret. At best you were here to see a portion of my life.

When you are ever confronted by authority.....always....ALWAYS use what is already written.....bible, bylaws, laws, code, etc....
My favorite scene from the film.

This is my second favourite scene. My first favourite will always be the one where he dances on his own.
One of the best scenes/speeches in all of film history. Amazing.

100% pure 80's cinema right there!
Tell it like it is Kevin bacon 😂
It looks to me like Lori (Ariel) is really touched by his speech and not just acting . All the characters are perfectly fitting .that's what makes it such a wonderful film. ❤️

Being really touched by a real moment is great acting. Great acting is genuinely experiencing an emotion and being willing to share it.
Our way of celebrating life…amen!
Amazing scene, the acting is so tight.....just incredible......
I wish there was a guitar riff every time I say something wildly true
It's great when Ren uses there weapons against the council.

I am assuming you mean...."brought"
Ren showed so much courage going before the town council to end the law against dancing.

Yep...Public speaking is one of most peoples' biggest fears, let alone in front of authority figures...probably the last position Ren wanted to be in, especially being a radical newbie in town, but when you're in the right, you gotta make yourself heard...even when the establishment won't listen...
As a grew I couldn’t help but love Vi 😻😻😻
I'm only 44 and the highschool I went to had a dance every Friday night after the football game but they took them away years ago. It was just a DJ and we would hang out with all our friends and yea I admit we raised a little hell but we had fun and I'm sure the people around my age look back at the fun we had. Now the kids just sit in front of a screen constantly. I feel so bad for this generation. We played ball and actually did shit. Kids that are 18 ish now don't care about anything except having a screen in front of them
Wish I could find the music from this scene
This scene is so great...... it really exemplifies two "sides of the aisle" coming to a sort of mutual understanding...... Ren understands that the preacher lost his son in a horrible accident and understandable agonizes that the type of accident he died in may happen again and his heart is in the right place... however Ren also understands that everything has its "time and place" even in the bible. eventually the reverend comes around although admittedly not 100% comfortable and understands that the town needs to start trusting its young people otherwise it has detriment on the rest of their lives .......... also I absolutely love the moment at 1:28 right after Ren quotes "praise his name in the dance" ~ the reverend for a split second almost gives a type of "respectful smile" type of a grin and one can tell that Ren has touched something in his soul in that moment.
Ah take me back ❤.

please love the 80s music films
By the look on the priest's face, he knows nothing of the Bible and all that God has to say on every matter. He was ignorant...
Was in Utah when them flimed. That movie.
Listen to ren McCormick

I liked this movie
Let's DAAANCE!!!! 🕺
When young people enjoy dance without smartphone youtube tik tok etc. Just dance

Somebody wrote this and was paid...
A plot of a movie is a town has outlawed dancing? Don’t think even the nazis outlawed dancing.
Oh he not a bad dancer ! Then he met me and and after 3 day's he was doing the 🥓! ADX8🌪🫂🌪💯💃🌪
I remember my lutheran high school wouldnt allow dances in the 80's calling it adiaphora. so we had to have them at the YMCA. what a joke. now look at the world . whos adiaphora now huh?
Back when quoting the Hebrew Bible and New Testament didn't offend everyone. What a fallen and evil world we live in now!

The bible is offensive if you have morality and empathy. No sir we live in a progressive modern world full of wonderful things like human rights, medicine and science. There’s just a few people left like you who want to cling to the evils of the past.
