    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.

    Being really touched by a real moment is great acting. Great acting is genuinely experiencing an emotion and being willing to share it.

    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...

    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

    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.

    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.
