Grease 2

The Rio Theatre‘s Friday Late Night Movie series continues on August 25 with one that is sure to please all the “cool riders” out there – GREASE 2!

Even better…? Late Night Date Night! Bring a your favourite Pink Lady, fellow Jock, or that T-Bird you’ve been lusting after and get two-for-one entry!

Stephanie Zinone (Michelle Pfeiffer) is the leader of Rydell High School’s Pink Ladies, a gang of girls who are counterparts of the school’s group of greasers called the T-Birds. Stephanie is tired of her relationship with top T-Bird Johnny Nogerelli (Adrian Zmed), so she breaks up with him and quickly catches the eye of English exchange student Michael Carrington (Maxwell Caulfield). Hoping to win her over, Michael tries to overcome his nerdy ways while holding off the jealous Johnny. With Pamela Adlon, Didi Conn, Eve Arden, Sid Caesar.

“There is a gender-flipped gonzo goofiness to the film that was wildly ahead of its time in ’82 and, sadly, likely remains so today.” (MovieFreak.com)

“Definitely of the so-bad-it’s-almost-good genre, this kinda stands the test of time in a camp way, mainly because of the charm of Pfeiffer and Carrington.” (Empire Magazine)

“Unlike ‘Grease’s’ “cool” Rizzo (Stockard Channing), Stephanie doesn’t have to be mean to anyone who doesn’t fit into her Pink Lady standard. She’s just cool, period.” (AV Club)
