Footloose


     This October will feature the release of the remake of the 1984 film, Footloose.

     To be honest I have mixed feelings about it. Mostly stemming from the fact that this iconic movie feels to me, like it just left theaters yesterday. But more honestly, this 2011 Footloose remake makes me feel like I'm officially getting old.

     I'm fully aware that the generation that will be rushing to see the "new" Footloose, may have no idea about the Deniece Williams jam, "Let's Hear It For the Boy" as a backdrop to one of the most memorable teacher-student dance scenes of the 1980s, featuring the late, Chris Penn.

     Will the new 2011 "Footloose" have as much heart as its predecessor?

     We'll soon find out.

At least once a day, you should dance like nobody's watching.
