Kick off your Sunday Shoes!

With Footloose hitting our cinemas (for the second time!) next month, it only seemed fair that we watch the original again in preparation. We had forgotten just how amazing it is!

What will be the outcome with the remake!? As always – the TruffleShuffle office is split. Some of us are wishing they would leave our classic movies alone – with others being quite excited to see the modern take on such an old hit.

Back in 1984 – Footloose introduced us to Kevin Bacon – bringing him into a small town where dancing had been outlawed. His character Ren, a city boy – falls in love with the daughter of a preacher (who actually instituted the ban!) and together – the two lovers cause havoc throughout the town.

With some cheese filled scenes like this - it’s no real surprise that it reached the list of top 80's Movies!

The remake has been in the works since 2008 – first of all ‘heartthrob’ Zac Efron was in line to fill the dancing shoes of Bacon, however Kenny Wormald is now playing the lead roll. Like Kevin Bacon in ‘84, he hasn’t really been in any major productions – so hopefully this will be a good time to shine and woo the critics. The rest of the cast seems pretty impressive, with Dennis Quaid playing the strict Preacher.

We’ve included the trailer for the 2011 film......let us know what you think?

As a TruffleShuffle night out - we will definitely be checking out the film, and most DEFINITELY rocking one of these awesome t-shirts!
