(1978, USA) Directed by Randal Kleiser. Day old pabulum. Kleiser (George Lucas' college roommate) proves that 1970s nostalgia can go just so far in this kiddie version of a 1950s high school musical.(There should be a little Nutrasweet warning logo on the poster down by the rating.) It made $153 million domestically; aren't they content already? Produced by Allan Carr (late of the Village People vehicle, "Can't Stop the Music" and the most loathed of recent Academy Awards shows), with John Travolta, Olivia Newton-John, Stockard Channing, Eve Arden, Sha Na Na, Jeff Conaway, Sid Caesar. 112m. Panavision. This twentieth-anniversary reissue boasts a restored print and soundtrack.
