although i laugh very much during some of the most gymnastic dance scene and i still love the film . we who grow up in the late 70this and early 80this remember a modern time and but without pc and play station . it be a time of music and video arcade and fun . the soundtrack from footloose suck up memory from the past long forgotten . footloose be really about break free from conservatism . dance and and celebrate life . the youth sense the time . cold war . the economic development . ecological issue . the increase pressure to succeed . be allow to kick loose and just have fun be a way to express ourselves . for me it a quick trip back to my youth . the only difference be that the actor be much well look than i be . and i have only my parent to lure and not a reverend to .
