summer lovin’
From the long-running hit Broadway show came one of the most popular screen musicals of all time. 70's pop icons John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John sizzle on screen in this valentine to the 1950's.
When Danny (Travolta) discovers the object of his "Summer Lovin'" fling Sandy (Newton-John) has moved to town and enrolled in his school a cavalcade of memorable tunes, dream sequences, Cadillac races and dance sequences burst into life.
