    The improv, hurried choreography nature of the end scene really suits it. I think if it had been too perfect it would have not been as fun. It was supposed to be a bunch of kids just having fun.

      And it gets manic at times. Haven't seen a HS or college age staged version of Grease in many years, but in every one I saw the kids just LOVED trying to bring the same high energy to those final scenes.

      my theory for this is that one: when it's planned it's mostly by the director but when they are improvising it's all heads together, two: it's easier to think what to do when the actors are in the situation of the scene and you can visually plan in the head and improvise

    Something I never noticed before... everyone always talks about how Sandy changed for Danny, and how that's a bad thing, but when you look at it again, notice that Danny also changed for her. This is something that happens in a relationship that is good for both individuals. They change in good ways, influenced by the other. People may say Sandy didn't change in a good way, but the point is that they were both kind of extremes, and they met in the middle.

    • @lisah8438
      @lisah8438 5 років тому +31

      Danny did not change for her completely. He was attempting too. Plus the difference is Danny was trying to be a good guy for Sandy. Pursuing other interest and such. Sandy started smoking, and looking like a bad girl. So no their changes are not the same or equal. You should never lower your standards, lower your values, or change your style for a man. It is okay to try new things. But Sandy did not try anything new. She just had a makeover and called it the day. What message does that send. It's just a movie but movies have messages. intentional or not.

That isn’t love. I am not saying don’t compromise or take an interest in your partner’s interests. They should be doing the same thing for you. If not, head for the hills!

    You know, when you sit back and watch the movie and think how perfect it is, you think of it through the mind of a fan, so it's really eye-opening to see the scenes in the perspective of the director....it's kind of like real life...You see countless mistakes and things that could've not gone well in the movie (or your life) but hardly anyone else does! (like matching the blue colors in the background, the sun setting...) I always thought Sandy's squint was just an addition to her new bad-girl personality! Kinda like a scowling-look!

    I wrote an essay for my film class once on improvisation, and I wish I had seen this video before writing it (although I still got perfect on it anyway). It was fascinating doing the research for it though. Giving your actors the freedom to flow with the scene can produce amazing results, and directors need to trust them more. Too many of them become too possessive of their art, and don't like to let go.

I saw an am-dram production of it back in 2013 and I personally felt that the stage version was sassier, more risqué and made more sense than the film version, notably with Sandy’s surname being Dumbrowski (beginning with D) instead of Olssen; by having Sandy’s surname beginning with D the reference to Sandra Dee made more sense.

      F G you mean directorial icon James Cameron?

      I doubt they could get James Cameron to do it. He is famously one of the most arrogant men on Earth. He wouldn’t think it was worth his time.

      Thomas Parry I’m not forgiving his arrogance but when you direct two of the most successful films of all time (avatar and titanic), I would be surprised if that DIDN’T boost the ego.

      DonnieTaco I much prefer Ridley Scott. He is a genius Writer and Director, has won dozens of awards, but he is still really kind, giving advice to aspiring filmmakers. I may be biased in my opinion though, as he is British.

    When I was 9 this came to theatres, I wanted to go because they played the soundtrack on the radio and I loved it. My older brother told my mom not to let me go because of adult scenes that I shouldn’t see. When It came out on V H S years later I finally got to see it, and this was one of my favourite scenes.
