Ren MacCormack moves from big-city Boston to a small southern town, where life is very different. He lives with his aunt and uncle after his divorced mother’s painful death from leukemia.

The local councilmen and Reverend Shaw Moore reacted to the incident by banning loud music and dancing. Ren stands up to the outmoded ban and, in the process, falls in love with the Reverend’s daughter Ariel Moore.

Note: this is a remake of the 1984 movie of the same name.In the small rural town of Bomont, Georgia, a group of teens are having a wild party with music, drinking, and dancing. Five of them decide to leave and get in a car together.

While crossing a bridge he leans over to kiss his girlfriend, loses control of the car, and runs head-on into a truck, resulting in a huge explosion, an upside-down car, and all five dead teens.A few weeks later, the grieving and fanatical Reverend Shaw Moore (Dennis Quaid) is delivering a Sunday sermon.

Soon afterwards, the town council votes to ban partying, loud music and all forms of public dancing. Ariel (Julianne Hough), his young daughter, is upset and not happy about any of it.THREE YEARS LATERRen McCormack (Kenny Wormald) gets off the Greyhound bus in Bomont.

As the owner of a local car dealership lot and garage, Wes lets Ren move into his “office”, and is reminded by his uncle that this isn’t Boston and adds: “So.. no getting into trouble and to make sure you keep up in school.” Wes tells him that his neighbor’s cotton gin has saved a job for him, and that with the economy the way it is, he’s lucky to have it.

Ren gets to work, and soon enough, he has the car running. He takes it for a drive, with the stereo blaring, and is promptly pulled over by a local cop.

Ren talks back to the unfriendly cop, and can’t believe that loud music is illegal here. The cop writes him up a citation.On Sunday, the family goes to church, and Ren catches the eye of a pretty girl, Ariel.

After church, Ariel tells her parents she has a school project to work on and will spend the night with her girlfriend, Rusty (Ziah Colon). It’s a lie, as they have no project, and they just want to go to town and see Chuck Cranston, her older boyfriend (Patrick John Flueger) to race his car at the local racetrack.

He literally bumps into a camo-wearing cowboy, and they verbally spar, until the cowboy laughs and introduces himself as Willard (Miles Teller). Willard informs Ren about the deaths of the students three years ago, and how the town went crazy and outlawed loud music, dancing and parties for kids.

After school, Ren goes to the cotton gin and starts his job.Later that night, the high school kids go and hang out at the concession stand at the drive-in movie theater, listen to music and dance. Ren sees Rusty and Ariel there.

Chuck sees it and is jealous. In comes Reverend Moore, and the pulls the plug on the music and orders all the teens to go home and for Ariel to go home with him.

Since Ren has a job, the judge rules that he is eligible for a suspended jail sentence, but must not have any other violations in the meantime otherwise there will be jail time.A few days later, Ariel pays Ren a visit at the cottin gin and says that Chuck wants him to come to his daddy’s race track tomorrow.

They drive, smash up things, and eventually Ren wins.Another few days later, a kid at school, named Rich, offers Ren a joint but he refuses. The librarian sees it, and chases Ren down the hall.

He tells the truth, that it wasn’t his and he didn’t want it. He also explains that he is a gymnast and never does any kind of drug.

He blasts the music, drinks a beer, and rips off his shirt. He dances his anger and stress out, and does gymnastic-flips, too.

As dusk approaches, she takes him to an abandoned train car, which is covered in graffiti, all of which is quotes, lyrics and poems. The local kids call it ‘The Yearbook’.

Then, she takes Ren to the railroad track, and stands in the middle as a train is coming, and she won’t get out of its way. As it barrels towards her, Ren yells and pleads for her to get off the track, and as she is about to get hit, he leaps and grabs her, and pushes her out of harm’s way.

She says she has been reckless and lost ever since her brother died.A few days later, Rusty and Willard, along with Ren and Ariel, drive to Atlanta to the Cowboy Bar, for some live music and country dancing. While Willard refuses to dance, Ren, Ariel and Rusty have a great time.

A cowboy asks Rusty to dance, while the jealous Willard watches and then can’t take it anymore. He cuts in, and then gets in a fight with the cowboy.

Uncle Wes tells him that Ren is a stand-up kid, who had to care for and watch his mother die from leukemia after his father abandoned them. Wes tells Moore that Ren is a good kid and strong-willed, but just misunderstood.

He wants a prom for his senior class. He thinks its time the law changed.

He never learned how, and is afraid to try. Ren, along with his two nieces, teaches Willard (in re-cycled montage from the first movie as Willard practices dancing to the soundtrack of the 1980s song ‘Let’s Hear It For the Boy’), and soon Willard is an excellent dancer, and happy that he can now dance with his girlfriend, Rusty.Ariel meets Chuck at the race track and breaks up with him over his moodyness and jealousy.

He leaves her face down in the dirt, and she staggers up, grabs a pipe, and wails on his truck, smashing in the headlights and windows. He is furious, and hits her again bloodying her face before driving off.At the church, when Reverend Shaw sees Ariel’s bloody and bruised face, he immediately thinks Ren did it, and threatens to kill Ren.

She tells him she has been so lost since Bobby died. She also tells him she isn’t a virgin, and he slaps her.Afterwords, Vi and the Reverend talk.

It was too much, too soon. She reminds him that his obligation is to his daughter first, and the congregation after family.At the town council meeting, Ren speaks and quotes the Bible (which Ariel gave him) and says, there is a time for dance.

Naturally, Reverend Shaw opposes the request and answers that they don’t want the spiritual corruption that dancing brings with it brought to their town. Ren’s request to overturn the no-dancing law is quickly denied.When Ren is at work the next day, his boss tells him that he hasn’t noticed that the cotton gin is just over the city line, and isn’t in Bomont, but Basin.

“That evening, Reverend Moore is rehearsing his next sermon in the chapel, and Ren comes in, and listens. When the Reverend notices him, he stops and they talk.

Ren promises to be respectful to Ariel. He tells the Reverend that the dance means a lot to him, but his daughter means more.

The town of Bomont doesn’t allow dancing because the adults don’t want these things to occur.. but they’re already, like, occurring.

Alcohol, cigarettes, and drugs appear constantly throughout the story. And it appears that this town has greater issues than young people doing the moonwalk.

Sure, he flushes it down the toilet, but the dissonance is already made clear. Ariel even recalls the story of the infamous bridge accident where drunk teens played car tag and plummeted off the bridge, which resulted in heavy sanctions on drinking and dancing.

While these teenagers would likely get in trouble if they were caught boozing, they still do it. They gladly, however, follow the no-dancing rule.

The adults canceled dancing so young people wouldn’t drink, do drugs, or have sex — but Footloose showed us that dancing really had nothing to do with it.

Directed by Dan BeckmannChoreographed by Erinn DearthMusic Direction by Kristina RailsbackA high-energy musical based off of the 80’s movie, Footloose is the story of Ren McCormack, a teenage boy from Chicago. He and his mother move to the small town of Bomont after his father abandons them.

With the help of the Ariel (the Reverend’s daughter) and Willard (a country hick who becomes his best friend), Ren convinces the Reverend to let the teenagers dance, and in the process helps the town to heal from a tragedy that affected them all.

WARSAW − A beloved 1980s film turned into a stage musical will soon be gracing the stage of River View High School. “Footloose” is a 1998 musical based on the 1984 film starring Kevin Bacon, Lori Singer and John Lithgow.

The play closely follows the original film about a high school student who moves to a new town that has outlawed dancing. There are original songs, but there are many from the film including the title number, “Holding Out for a Hero,” “Let’s Hear it for the Boy” and “Almost Paradise.”.

The play is updated for the modern day, but still has a lot of themes and moments from the original movie, which she believes are timeless and that her students can relate to as they also live in a small town. “There’s a lot of story points where the kids can connect with the subject matter.

“We all know ‘Footloose’ is about a town that says no to dancing due to some tragedies that happened. There’s a lot of rules in place for the teens.

We see some real life subject matter.”. Senior Paige Nicely plays Vi Moore, wife of the strict Rev.

While Vi is grouped with the adults, she’s sympathetic to the teens and wants to help her husband heal and move on from the death of their son. “I love it because of the family you make and all the skills you learn,” she said of the value of drama in high school.

There are 37 students in the cast, which McMullen said is quite large. There are also about five more students helping backstage along with other high school staff, alumni and community volunteers assisting.

Because they’ve done it and know how is is. They know how to communicate with the kids to help them through when they’re new and find out what the next thing is.

“The community members bring a wealth of knowledge from different facets of life and we’re happy to have them as well. We couldn’t do it without all of them.”.

Washington describes her character as rebellious, but with a soft heart underneath and family oriented, but that doesn’t come out until the end. She knew the original film starred Kevin Bacon, but not much else before starting rehearsals.

It’s been interesting learning about the other characters from the movie and then seeing us portray them on stage. I feel we do portray them pretty well,” Washington said.

Moore, who he describes as always watching and has control over everything. He’s enjoyed working with the cast because of the energy everyone puts forth.

Senior Kiera McPeck plays Ren’s mother, Ethel McCormack. The family is struggling emotionally and financially following Ren’s father leaving, leading to the move to the smaller Bomont.

Performances will be at 7:30 p.m. April 28 and 29 in the auditorium of River View High School, 26496 Ohio 60, Warsaw.

Footloose. Posted by Tim Brayton Posted on Oct – 18 – 2011 4.5 Comments.

heck, I guess it completely fails. And frankly, that is what you get and that is what you deserve for remaking a movie that has remained in the hearts and minds of film fans for over a quarter of a century almost solely because it has one of the earwormiest title songs ever perpetrated on an unsuspecting countryside.

If not, I think you need to cut loose. Footloose.

Anyway, since Footloose ’84 was noteworthy primarily for its soundtrack, which spawned a truly frightening number of huge hits, it is merely sensible that Footloose ’11 would see fit to use each and every single one of them in a brand new cover version, and since this is 2011 and music is dead, that basically means that each and every single one of them is precisely identical to the original recordings except with lots of autotune sucking all of the new singers’ voices.

The parts of the movie that are not calamitously redundant pop music covers tell the story of one brave kid’s fight against a dance ban in the quiet conservative town of Bomont, GA. I will resist the urge to point out that parents’ fear of the demon rock ‘n roll is the stuff of teensploitation from 1954 & not so much from today, because the same exact charge could be and very often was made of the original movie.

So, you know the drill, right. Ren moves in from Boston after his mother died (one of the single biggest changes to the story – they came together in the original, for economic reasons) meets the adrenaline junkie Ariel Moore (Julianne Hough), daughter of the town’s Presbyterian minster, Rev.

” laws in the first place. Ren’s urban manner strikes the Bomontans as smug, rebellious dickery, and he quickly becomes persona non grata among the adults, while rallying the kids to challenge the ban through safe & sane legal means.

There’s virtually nothing about Footloose that is appallingly bad, and there is sweet fuck-all that is any good, although there are a few dances near the end – just about the only part of this entire dance movie in which dancing occurs – that are agreeably grand in their ambition and the talent of those dancing that it sends you out of the theater on a high, which is maybe the only thing an ending can ever be expected to do.

as remakes go, not many of them function as homages to such an extent as this does, with every other scene, practically, including some in-joke or exactly repeated shot.

Hough, I think, gets special notice for being forced and alien. you can virtually hear the director offscreen, whispering urgently that she needs to squint up her eyes, and let her voice catch, and none of it feels remotely human.

Because, y’know, dancing ban. Which makes it really hard to have a proper dance movie.

I haven’t terribly much liked his previous features, Hustle & Flow and Black Snake Moan, but they’ve both got a kind of humidity about them, a disreputable, sweaty sexual undercurrent that gives them a distinct, and shared, personality.

Instead, we get the most immaterial remake of 2011, and boy, ain’t that saying something. 4/10.

The 1984 movie Footloose featured plenty of teen drinking—a problem that no one seemed to be addressing. Thirty years have done a lot to change our attitudes about underage alcohol consumption, especially when it involves driving.

Despite its prolific use, other issues get all the adult attention. Parents, who watched the first film as teens, will also find a lot of similar content in this remake.

While less skin is exposed than in the original R-rated movie, sexual innuendo between characters is common. In the update, Kenny Wormald reprises the role of Ren McCormack played first by Kevin Bacon.

His loss and subsequent relocation are only made more difficult when he discovers public dancing is prohibited by order of the local town council. Five of Bomont’s outstanding teens, including the son of Reverend Moore (Dennis Quaid), were killed in a car accident.

Three years later, nothing more raucous than a church dance has taken place—though you’d be hard pressed to believe it when you see these kids’ moves at a secret event held at a drive-in movie theater. Only Ren’s cowboy friend Willard (Miles Teller) doesn’t boogie, not because he doesn’t want to, but because he can’t.

Ren, the outsider, is accused of bringing trouble to the community after a student tries to peg him as a drug dealer. Yet the local adolescents are involved in fistfights, abusive beatings and illegal activities (such as faking their way into a big city bar).

Although Ren legally approaches city council to revoke the bylaw, many of the daily activities he and the other teens engage in are far from law abiding. As well, the Reverend and town council’s intentions to forestall another serious accident are admirable, but in the midst of setting down the rules about their kids’ diversions they fail to address the bigger issues afflicting their children.

Still, it’s hard to go wrong with a score boasting such Top 40 favorites as “Let’s Hear It for the Boy,” “Holding Out for a Hero,” “Almost Paradise” and Kenny Loggins’ driving title tune.

Moore into a sympathetic figure, especially when revealing the man’s conflicted feelings in the heartfelt “Heaven Help Me.” Micha Pelkey is also winning as his long-suffering wife Vi. She joins Ariel and Ren’s mother Ethel (Hailey Acklin) in the Sondheim-like “Learning to be Silent,” then provides a standout solo moment with an emotional “Can You Find It in Your Heart.”.

She sizzles in the aforementioned “Let’s Hear It for the Boy,” a rousing ode to Willard’s newfound dancing prowess, while he delivers tons of aw-shucks hayseed charm in the humorous “Mama Says.”.

Parker Payne’s six-piece band segues from pop/rock to country and traditional Broadway sounds with panache. “Footloose the Musical” may not qualify as a song-and-dance classic, but it does allow a talented cast to strut its stuff in a toe-tapping tale of competing values.
