Additional Footage; Soundtrack English; English Subtitles; Dolby Digital 5.1 Re; Sensor Matic This film adaptation of GREASE is the zippy smash hit translation from the Broadway musical tribute to the fabulous 1950s. As a new school year begins, wholesome Australian exchange student Sandy (pop star Olivia Newton-John) and duck-tailed, leather-jacketed Danny (John Travolta) parlay their summertime romance into an on-and-off attraction that may or may not cross clique lines. Sandy seriously cramps Danny's style, so he dumps her. In response, Sandy begins dating a wholesome athlete, but, as a hedge, she also joins the gum-chewin', tough-talkin' clique known as the Pink Ladies. One of the most beloved musicals of all time, the popular soundtrack includes "You're the One that I Want," "Hopelessly Devoted to You," "Sandy," "Summer Nights," and the title tune. Currently the highest-grossing musical of all-time, GREASE has made $380 million at the box office worldwide.
Olivia Newton-John's film debut. Grease Reviews: "...Zesty choreography and very excellent new plus revived music....Newton-John registers very impressively..."
-- Murf., Variety "...A life that is all its own....Loaded with the kind of talent and exuberance you don't often find very far from a musical stage..."
-- Vincent Canby, New York Times "...It's a gum-snapping slice of cinema that's impossible to watch without smiling..."
-- Christine Spines, Premiere "...Pleasant and upbeat....Travolta is an important and enduring movie star..."-- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times "...The enduring appeal of the teenybopping musical spawned a knock-off sequel, a Broadway revival, and countless high school productions..."
-- Jennifer Armstrong, Entertainment Weekly "An era-blending, hip-twitching piece of pop culture, GREASE is still the word 25 years since its release..."
-- Daniel Webb, Total Film "Never underestimate the power of catchy tunes, Travolta's hips, and a sweet-yet-smutty script." -- Grade: B+-- Mandi Bierly, Entertainment Weekly Grease | List Price | $19.99 (You save $6.00) | | Studio | Paramount Home Entertainment | | Orig Year | 1978 | | All Time Sales Rank | 69086  | | CD Universe Part number | 7697709 | | Catalog number | 7903780 | | Discs | 1 | | Release Date | Sep 23, 2008 | | Rating | PG (MPAA) | | Running Time | 110 Minutes | | Additional Info | Widescreen; Special Edition; Dubbed; Subtitled | | Movie Details | Color; Widescreen; Special Edition; Dubbed; Subtitled; Rockin' Rydell Edition with Lettermen's Sweater |

| | Murphy's Romance DVD (1985) Widescreen
Grease DVD
$6.55 A charming, low-key romantic comedy, MURPHY'S ROMANCE is full of the small pleasures missing from other pictures of its genre. James Garner, in his first Oscar-nominated performance, is the title character, Murphy. Garner lends his unique, down-home persona to the character while the film's writers endow the character with some memorable lines. Murphy's romance begins when Emma (Field) arrives in the small Arizona town where he lives. With her she brings her son Jake, and a feisty attitude. Though this sounds like a set-up from any number of other film romances, it becomes clear from their first meeting that the director, Martin Ritt, is more interested in his carefully observed setting, and in the comic flirtations between Murphy and Emma flirtations, than in making a conventional picture. In fact, some of the film's strongest comic scenes occur when the locals show off their color, including a hilarious sequence during a bingo game that showcases the amazing support cast. Of course, there is some drama and confrontation, but the focus remains on the setting and the relationship between Murphy and Emma, whose lengthy romance is the clear mark of one of the most highly enjoyable movie courtships ever seen.
