I still can't believe Sandys gone. So sad. R.I.P Olivia Newton John.
I loved her more in Xanadu.
RIP
Sandy (the character) shall live on forever.
we all saw it coming.
Very sad
This was my favorite movie when I was growing up. I can still recite the film word for word as an almost 50 year old woman. Grease is still the word.
Great movie
It’s funny that Minty brought up that trivia that Henry Winkler turned down John Travolta’s part and had no regrets about doing so, because Travolta turned down Forrest Gump and he said that that was 1 of his biggest regrets
I am almost 50 years old also and can still recite the whole film word for word also.
But what Sandy are you. 🤔
I hope he does Xanadu next
She really was one of the most beautiful woman to ever live, just a genuine all around great person.
And instantly likeable. She was like a beautiful big sister.
Kira has returned to Olympus
Yeah, she's pretty.
She was also strong willed. She knew she was dying, but that did not stop her from being happy and grateful where many of us would have cracked and been sad. She spread positivity until the end. That is what made her strong, she did not allow a disease to stop her from enjoying life.
@@goofyrulez7914 That smile and the songs she made and sung- just made you feel good. In our world of so-called "singers", she shone like a diamond and had time for everyone. She will NEVER be forgotten and can now be added to the list of legends
The book thing is all about proper posture.
This was my late mothers favorite movie. I've watched it 100+ times with her and makes me think of her every time I see it..
I was looking for this comment, my Mom told me the same thing. You do it when you're walking to improve your "grace".
I was thinking it was a finishing school technique.. but used in an. Urban setting.. as in passed from mother/sister to daughter/sister.
However I'm stemming towards mother being that a generational thing or perhaps it was a trend that was brought over from finishing schools to the more common environment.. or maybe from a "girls magazine" as a tip for better living.. blah blah blah
That's a great way to remember her by. I'm a retired police officer, 6'2", 215, competed in all sports, still ski, hunt, horse back riding and training, can throw bales of hay across our barn etc., but I loved this movie and watched it all the time with my second daughter all thru her childhood. This and Moulin Rouge. Her friends just couldn't believe that someone like me (I don't want to say manly but you get the picture) would not only watch these two movies with her but know every word of every song. Like you after I'm gone I hope (and know) that she'll remember watching Grease with me all those years. I apologize for the lengthy response but I know exactly how you feel.
I would watch parts of the movie when my mother had it on television. As a tribute to my mother, I watched Grease Live! (2016) and found it to be one of the few best televised musicals.
I should have read down a bit further to see that you already explained the book thing, lol. You know, girls also had to kneel on the floor and if the hem of their dress didn't touch the ground, they were sent home. Of course they also taught kids how to fire rifles in school back then too, so...
The book on her head…practicing her model walk, they used to teach that in etiquette classes, I believe that’s what they were called. I remember my Grandmother teaching us to walk with books. 😁✌🏼💖
Also heard the term "finishing school" that taught the same book on head thing.
I just did it for fun. To see if I could walk without the book falling. Same as the balancing an egg on a spoon thing
@@simplyjuannie5128 And....................how did you do?
You're exactly correct.
we need etiquette classes again. or class period. instead theyre teaching 8 year olds how to have graphic sex and that racism is good. how far weve fallen.
One of the greatest musicals ever made, cool video as always Minty, keep up the good work, take care.
RIP Olivia Newton-John 🙏
RIP ONJ, my first TV/Movie crush. Still watch this a few times a year, great film, great songs and soundtrack and a real feel good watch!
19:39 is Lorenzo Lamas. His part was certainly more than a "blink and miss it" but many still don't know he played the guy Sandy used to make Danny jealous.
OMG that horrible blond hair!
I think he got a fairly good-sized part. They showed them as a part of a member of the track team as well
@@taelorwatson9822 Agreed... he's just overlooked as the actor playing him.
Lorenzo lamas was such a nerd in Grease. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Hi I'm glad someone brought him up as I noticed his name & remembered he starred in Falcon Crest, he played Lance Angela Channing's grandson.
God bless you Olivia.
You changed the world and made my childhood.
We will NEVER forget you
😢😢😢
How did she die?
@@joshuagibson2520 Cancer.
Cancer
"Why would the Beach Boys be in a high school garage?"
The same reason Frankie Avalon turned up in a diner, I suppose.
You forgot that Adrienne Barbeau was in the original Broadway production too, as Rizzo!
Thanks for doing GREASE and paying tribute to Olivia Newton-John!! And all the best from Austria - which is always confused with Australia..! :))
You have to admit, Grease is still relevant today. Olivia Newton John will certainly be missed. RIP to her and all Grease cast members and crew members who have passed away. Thankful for all their hard work on a movie that makes us feel young and innocent again. Thank you for presenting this. It was great!
Great dancing, great singing and overall great actors. R.I.P Olivia Newton John.
I was a 15 year old Led Zeppelin freak who didn't like doo wop or the 50s and my mother forced me to accompany her to see it. I had better things to do, I thought. Very nostalgic for me now and my mom passed away two years ago so, Grease holds a special place in the scheme of my life and of course I DID enjoy it somewhat that day in the summer of 78. RIP lovely Olivia
I was also a 15 year old LZ freak when this came out. Just got my drivers license and the movie was my first ever date. My mom grew up in the 50s so she was fond of it too. I miss her too. RIp Olivia, you were a memorable voice of my childhood. Susan, Wishing you the best!
@@rockerdowns6051 Thank you for sharing. Wishing you peace, health and happiness!
At 7 years old my mom and sister dragged me to it twice in '78, and I loved it
I have to commend Jeff Conaway for his professionalism..Greased Lightning was Kenickie's big number in the original play and if I had been playing Kenickie no way would I have let Travolta take my one and only big song in the show.
It was a solid tactical move by Conway I'd suggest. Travolta was well on his way to becoming the biggest movie star on the planet by now, and picked the ideal time to ride his coat tails for some well deserved exposure.
Jeff was a solid guy. He was great in Babylon 5 show.
I heard Conway wasn’t comfortable singing more than a few words on his own
In addition, according to good ol' Minty, Travolta got Conway the part, so Conway owed him. :)
now am I wrong or did Jeff Conaway play a bounty hunter in one of the pitch black movies?
I am so very happy you mentioned Michael Biehn, as I had no idea he was in the movie until about roughly 10 years ago.
same so before he was sent back in time to protect Sarah Connor from a terminator Kyle Reese was attending high school with Danny Zuko
Rest in peace Olivia, you're movies and music made the world a better place. Thank you
I can't imagine Henry Winkler as Danny cause of having to sing Sandy. John Travolta is awesome as Danny and Olivia Newton John is amazing as Sandy. Perfect casting for Grease from all the actors and actresses.
I heard that story from the horse's mouth. It was one of the coolest things ever.
Yeah, Henry as Danny would have been a huge mistake. It would have looked like Fonzie was in a movie., not a character named Danny. Added Henry was about 5ft/3in. And I don't know if he could sing and dance. Travolta was a perfect choice., and he was very hot at the time being an ex sweathog and doing movie after movie. I STILL get emotional watching the boy in the plastic bubble.
@@callmesir761
I seen Urban Cowboy and Saturday Night Fever. John Travolta was totally a dancing machine.
@@Psmgamer Check out "Staying Alive" if you haven't. The follow up to Saturday night fever. A bit cheesy but still a good movie
Thank you so much for covering this movie! I saw the movie in 1978 in Chicago. It was amazing! It was my favorite movie growing up.
The student walking around with a book on her head, which until your video probably I and others didnt notice is NOT really that unusual. Its apart of a training tool mostly used in "finishing schools" (cant remember the other name of) for girls to understand and be raised "properly" back decades ago especially in 1950s and 60s. It was also scene in 1990s baseball film A League of their Own"
Yea, it was supposed to improve posture and walking grace.
" A League of Their Own" is one of my all time favourite films! Always makes me cry at the end. I see that Amazon Prime have put up a series of the same title and I guess similar themes but with some differences. I'm curious to see how that goes.
It was still a thing when I was in school in the late 70s. Finishing school wasn't a thing in my neighborhood but occasionally the posture exercises would pop up in teen magazines and would spur the craze anew.
My school district provided books for our classes for free (on loan) and would distribute outdated textbooks for free (to keep, if wanted) to any who wanted. They indulged us in supporting fads they saw as harmless even though it was a very blue collar industrial urban town immediately adjacent to Chicago.
@@FeelinErie I've been hearing good things about the show so far. I've become pretty cautious about new shows, so I can't wait to check it out
We had something like that at my high school ..it was mostly used as a Hazing a non violent hazing ..or just to mess with freshmen ...the police kinda busted down on violent hazing but the schools allowed very minimal tricks like these this was in the 90s
Funny how Travolta and John chemistry was shown in the movie, but on the other side Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze hated each other in dirty dancing and yet they too were amazing together in that movie too
Who says they "hated" each other? She was very loving in her interviews and even dedicated her "Dancing Stars" win to Patrick
@@homelesshannah50 was that before or after he died....
@@cob2076 After he passed, she won her season of "Dancing with the Stars" and said it was dedicated to Patrick
"Acting!!" - SNl
@@homelesshannah50 - They didn't hate each other, but had hard times together on set. There are interviews on RUclips and behind the scenes footage of their tension. Patrick Swazey did an interview saying he was really frustrated with her during their practice dance numbers & the real footage was used in the movie. But it was well documented that they didn't get along on set. But of course afterwards put it aside and became friends. Patrick's AFI interview on RUclips gives a bit of insight.
Great show Mark and Great tribute to Olivia Newton John
Rest in peace Olivia Newton John
The guys' reaction to Sandy's transformation was real. It was the first time they'd seen Olivia Newton John in that tight black leather outfit. John Travolta's surprised reaction was genuine.
I know intensified for him considering he had a huge crush on Olivia.
That iconic outfit was a problem. She had to be sewn into it and it was so tight that she could barely breath after awhile. Added that scene was shot in the summer and spandex doesn't breathe. So she was trussed up AND hot. She made it through the scene as we all know, but it wasn't easy for her..
@@catspawgardner3213 Olivia also had a crush on John Travolta. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
@@callmesir761 To add to that she said she couldn't eat or drink a lot in that outfit as cool & as sexy as she looked in it it must've been a nightmare for her. Good thing she didn't have to be in it a lot.
This is my sisters favorite movie. ONJ had such a unique voice and loved her in Xanadu even though many hated the movie. She will be missed that’s for sure. Goodbye Sandra Dee 😢
Xanadu is my favorite movie and also my mother's my dog even named kira
I had the pleasure of meeting Olivia in 2010 while doing Red Faces on Hey Hey it’s Saturday. She was a pleasure to talk to and she was very supportive of my singing potential.
As always, love your work. Very well researched and always something new to learn.
Red Faces on Hey Hey it’s Saturday in 2010? Calendar check?
@@thedys70 so the show got a reboot and a Wednesday night slot. The show didn't last after the one year reboot.
RUclips search "Red Faces All That Jazz"
@@shikishinobi Consider it done; you are on the list bro!
Yes this definitely is a Classic film!
Olivia-Newton John will be Missed! Thanks for all you have done in your life and career!! RIP. Good job Mr. Minty!!
Hi, Minty, I'm from Argentina. About the title in the spanish version, I don't think it was a translation error, since vaseline was sometime a common product for hair with the same purpose of that grease. Also it was known as "gomina" or "fijador" ( fixative). I think Vaselina was the right choice. I send you a hug and keep doing this great work. I never miss your videos. Chauuuu! 🖖😊
Yep, I'm from Mexico and we did the same thing back in the day. I know I did lol
My favourite musical of all time Grease will always be legendary and RIP to all the actors and actresses who were part of the movie especially Olivia newton-john thanks for uploading this Minty your the best👍👍👍👍👍
When I saw ONJ live, Didi Cann was sitting several rows in front of me. She eventually got up, went on stage, and sang songs from Grease with ONJ, who looked fantastic in her 60s.
Still remember seeing Grease with neighbours as an 8 year old in 1978, at Cinema centre in Bourke street Melbourne.
The queue for tickets that saturday went around the block, further than you could see. Those were indeed the days.
And we appreciate all the love in the comments for our Livvy. Vale ONJ.
I must've seen Grease over 20 times. It's a really good movie/story. You can watch it over and over and never get bored of it. Olivia Newton John will be missed RIP
Thank you Minty for all the research, time and effort that goes into all of your videos. I have watched for a number of years, and I love your humor and dry wit throughout.
"tells the stories of 20something year old teanagers" took me a second to catch this, but I laughed out loud at it. Funniest thing I've heard all week. Well done sir!
One of my all time favorite movies ever! I saw Grease 2 first as a little kid, but I loved the first one way more when I finally saw it. The original one came out the same year that I was born, so I never had the chance to see it in a movie theater. I had that opportunity when it was was rereleased in the movie theater on it's 20th anniversary in 1998. I also grew up listening to Olivia Newton John's music as a little kid. My mom would watch her HBO concert in the early 80's over and over. She will definitely be missed. She had it all. She had a beautiful singing voice, amazing songs, fantastic dancer, and she was extremely gorgeous! She had the face of an angel that could melt everyone's heart, and she did. Rest In Peace Olivia Newton John! I will always listen to your beautiful songs, and they will live on forever.
This was on Tv not long after Olivia Newton John passing and my other half and I were laughing on how some of the lyrics on some songs are a bit saucy and reflect the times. She was shocked when I said I watched Grease on its first release when I was only 6 and it’s become one of my all time favourite films. That and of course ONJ / Sandy was one my first crush.
This was the first movie my sister and I enjoyed together. Thank you Minty! 💗☀️
When I was 10 this and Star Wars was my fave movies. My best buddy and I watched them all the time... we loved the hair, the girls and the cars.. haha.. still watch this regularly. Always takes me back and is always equally enjoyable. An absolute classic...
Now that RUclips exists, it blows my mind that there are still quite a few people who’ve never seen movies like Star Wars, Jurassic Park, Jaws etc. because so many RUclipsrs do reaction videos of those movies in which it’s their first time watching those movies. But I have to keep in mind that these people are so much younger than us. So I guess it makes sense that they’ve never seen those movies no matter how baffling it is
I remember standing for almost a full day to see this when I was a kid, about 11 years old. local theatre only had 2 screens, was shown 24/7 for about 3 months, with huge queues.
I began watching grease since the late 90's. Better late then never. I have seen it ten times since
I honestly have never seen another human who has the exact same thoughts as me when it comes to movie. Mark Bishop please take a bow! I've been a sub in the 80k range and every upto is amazing. I just want to say thank you bro. Grease is one of those movies that have the feel good vibes that no matter what you're going through it always perks you up. Nothing but love.
And this is the exact same feeling you give me when watching any of your videos. I'm at the point now that I don't care what movie you're doing. I'm just loving your company that you provide through this screen. You're about as authentic as it gets and really are a special person. After watching you all these years and gone back to binge watch all the uploads again I just can't get enough. Thank you again bro, I really mean it! You're a superstar. From one Brit to another.. keep it up Sir.. you're a legend!
One of my favorites... Everyone was at their best and delivered a true classic. Truly the last of the great classic musicals...
I absolutely LOVED this movie, and still do! I remember my friend had the soundtrack record and we would listen it over and over and do the dances and sing the songs. I do miss that time in my life. The very early 80’s was the best time. RIP Beautiful, Classy and Graceful Olivia Newton John ❤️
I must have watched this 3 times in the theater (I was 8 going on 9, in '78); I had the soundtrack and 8-track; I memorized each song by heart. I loved Travolta, and Olivia was who I wanted to be when I grew up. In fact, when I was in 4th grade, I told all of my friends that when I grew up I was going to Oz to meet ONJ. Flash forward 12 years and I made to Oz, but, alas, Olivia was living in California. Oh well. GREASE is up there in the list of things that made childhood bearable.
Olivia made the 70s worthwhile. May she forever rest in peace.
Rest in peace, Olivia, you will never be forgotten. I have fond memories of watching "Grease" and "Xanadu" as a child, so thank you for bringing music into my childhood. 🎶😍
Thank you for uploading this, Minty. Olivia Newton-John would thank you also.
They were actually called The Burger Palace Boys. My big brother was in a school production of Grease as a teenager, so I know.
Instead of the Beach Boys joining in with the T-Birds during the "Greased Lightning" number, I might have wanted the Belmonts to join them. That would have been more period specific.
Two interesting points: #1 the Bee Gee's broke records and had the longest running #1 songs on the Billboard list and wad eventually taken out by one song, a song ironically written by Barry Gibb "Grease". #2 is the fan theory that "Sandy" actually drowned in the opening and that "Danny" wasn't able to save her and the events depicted in the movie were all in his mind, a fantasy to help him cope with the fact that the girl he'd just met and was to be the love of his life had died tragically.
There’s this alternative narrative, That Sandy Drowned, and All this was just Fantasy. It’s why the movie skips through time. And at the End, she managed to hook back up with Danny and goes to Heaven.
And with Olivia’s passing it seems the Ending of Grease is perfect for her. No more Pain.
RIP.
That was a fan myth. The director dismissed it.
When you mention that Elvis was offered the role of the Angel (Frankie Avalon's eventual role) and turned it down. ITS MORE PROBABLE his DAMN manager Col. Parker turned it down
yes, we get it. You've seen some movie about a month ago and think you're an Elvis connoisseur now. Grease was shot in June 1977, during Presley's last US tour when he had zero days off.
Im 51, and didnt care for the one a month ago. I know elvis and film history. Hadnt even heard about this elvis revelation claim tlll Minty's video. Im curious where that info came.
Olivia Newton John... You lost a national treasure Mark... You have my condolences for your entire country.
A very nice touch by dedicating to our sweet lady Olivia Newton-John as Sandy. We will be "hopelessly devoted" & missing u, my darling from New Orleans. My older sisters got me into loving Grease back in the 80s. ❤️🙏🏽🥰
Olivia Newton John was an Aussie National Treasure and the most beautiful woman ever. Her life is a triumph over adversity because she was always so positive no matter what life threw at her and she helped so many others on her way. RIP Olivia.
Yeah she was really beautiful ❤
I remember my older brother taking me to see it at the movies. I was around 13. Olivia was just so beautiful and looked so innocent and sweet. RIP.
Btw, thank you creating this video! The loss of ONJ has been hard on many of us and this video is very nostalgic as well as comforting as a fan….
My wife loved this movie immensely. Anytime it was on TV, she would turn it on. We even owned the VHS cassette, the DVD, and the Blu-Ray. But I didn’t mind, as I loved the music. She could hand jive, but I would get my hands tangled up! Good times.
Can you do a video on Xanadu?
YES! I actually loved Xanadu and Moulin Rouge. My wife and kids used to always say I was one movie song at from being gay lol, but I loved sexy Olivia and Nicole Kidman and all these great songs.
RIP Olivia.... As I get older my generation continues to disappear. Sad times and all are missed....
Nice review...I'm so heartbroken over ONJ's passing. Love and light forever.
Please do “Berry Gordy’s The Last Dragon” 🙏🏾🙏🏾
RIP Olivia Newton John - Great episode Minty! Lots of interesting bits in this one, and $300M+ on a $6M budget is crazy!
farewell ONJ and man one of the best Musicals movies of all time!
A true legend she will never be forgotten! RIP
You forgot to add the song “Sandy” which was another song written specifically for the film. It’s not in the original broadway musical show.
Great video, great movie, we used to sit in the movie theater and watch it over and over again, back when you could still do that, and didn't ever get chased out, good times.
That's wild about Olivia's accent. She did a great American Southern accent in "Sordid Lives," which came along much later. She must have worked on it. 😊
Grease is the word indeed. I only saw the film for the first time AFTER listening to the soundtrack obsessively.
And RIP Olivia Newton-John. My fav song of hers post-Grease is “Heart Attack”
Book on the head... What I did when I was in elementary school in the 2000s. Actually served me well growing up, because it did improve my posture. :)
Walking with a book on your head was to train girls in finishing school how to walk with poise and grace. Just a joke in this case, being at Rydell compared to somewhere else more distinguished.
Minty. Did you know you ate my favorite RUclips personality? You actually tell me things I didn't know! Like you just told me things I didn't know about this movie that I grew up with, cuz I was born in 1975 and I have owned the soundtrack track on LP, cassette and compact disc. And actually have the cd in my car today. I love this movie, and the music even more, and you just blew my mind with things I didn't know!!!
Thank you Minty! You are the best!
One major thing you forgot. A few years ago the writers/director behind grease admitted a theory about the movie was correct. Both Danny and Sandy had drowned in the beginning of the movie and everything after was them meeting in heaven
Good point!?
I for one tend to regard this film as a _dream film_ , by Sandy, the point-of-view character. But, the "afterlife" theory sounds plausible, too (since the car flies into the air at the end, and it is not a sci-fi picture, the premise would have to be narrowed down to either AFTERLIFE or DREAM).
I heard slightly different, that only Sandy passed. She hit her head on the rock, didn't make it and the entire movie is her eulogy. Which as an adult the movie (morbidly) makes a lot of sense! Now that Minty tells us about Travolta doing Conaway's song, yes, in Sandra's mind Danny would be everything. The stuff that doesn't make sense would if it was all a dream. I'm glad Mrs Olivia was able to keep her accent because it gave a different life (singled out) and for her eulogy why fake a bad accent when it's not you.
They can say whatever they like, I guess. Like saying that actually everyone in the movie was an alien in disguise. It doesn't mean that thing they said was part of the screenplay or something that was intentionally thought about during the making of the film. They might have even just been having a bit of fun and saying the theory was true just for a laugh, or because it doesn't really matter because it doesn't change the film (but just changes a few people's perceptions of the film who believe them).
@@alexp601 I agree. The alien thing is new too me though; can't get with that one. However, her early death does put things into better perspective, but yeah that might change the movie rating and change the audience. If that part was in the pitch meeting but not screenplay...who knows? Perhaps like you said they could've just had fun with the crowd after many decades.
@@chul074 they said in the beginning when danny saved her from drowning, he also drowned while trying. It explains a lot in the movie
Thanks for all the work you put into these amazing videos
Minty you've outdone yourself here. Just a wonderful and truly interesting look at GREASE and a well said tribute to the incredible Olivia Newton-John. Well done mate!
I had no idea that Olivia newton john had died, what a bummer, my mom loved her and I’ve listened to most of her work as a kid. Voice like a angel and one of the most strikingly beautiful women at the time. RIP
Possibly my favourite movie as a kid. Still have the soundtrack double album kicking about. Apparently I would start dancing in the aisles when we went to the pics (I was 3, it's not a crime 🤣)
RIP ONJ.
Great job paying tribute to a wonderful movie and an incredible iconic cast.
RIP Olivia, you were a wonderful soul who left us way to early. You will never be forgotten ❤️
You forgot one of the bigger casting decisions. The studio bosses wanted Marie Osmond as Sandy, and offered her the role, but she turned it down. Olivia Newton-John nailed the role and did a wonderful job but it almost wasn't to be.
Very good review and tribute to Olivia Newton John. Thank you for doing this.
Now do another 50s nostalgia movie: American Graffiti.
You almost made me cry with your final words and yes, she will
Be missed. Rest in Peace our angel Olivia Newton-John
I’d love to see a 10 Things You Didn’t Know About for the 1983 re-teaming of Travolta & Newton-John, the criminally underrated cult classic Two of a Kind.
RIP Olivia Newton John. This remains one of my favorite movies.
Ah Grease, a nice happy, feel good film featuring smoking, teenage pregnancy, changing your appearance to make a guy like you, and being convinced to give up your dreams!
Honestly, its probably one of the most deceptively clever musicals ever made. And im surprised you noticed the girl with the book on her head, but literally none of the other extras. Seriously, watch the extras next time you watch it. They are always doing something funny or interesting, and have their own mini stories that carry through the film in the background. It's genius!
ONJ was quite the stunner. Such a talented lady. Such a loss. Oh dear, what a Pity, never mind. Cheers Minty for your lovely recap.
ONJ will forever be Sandy, but there were four others that were considered. Marie Osmond was their first choice, but she turned it down because she objected to Sandy changing who she was. The other three considered for the part was Susan Dey, Deborah Raffin, and Carrie Fisher. I absolutely can not see Fisher in the role at all.
Loved Carrie Fisher, but she would have been coked off her head during this production.
@@thedys70 yep, and as much a I love her as an actress, I couldn’t see her as the innocent Sandy. The strength of character she conveyed as Princess Leia radiated in almost everything she did.
Thank you for doing this! Loved ❤️ Grease.
You got the feeling Danny was the leader? He IS the leader. He literally aadmonishes the Tbirds at the films climax "you guys cant follow leader youre whole life..."
Minty I do not understand how you haven't hit 1mill yet!! Your videos brighten my day so much! I love seeing my fav movies or franchises on here
In the 80's when I first saw it, I was like "so they got a flying car in the end?" to which my uncle at the time said "It's because both of them drowned in the beginning of the movie and it was all a dream. I mean come on the song Goodbye Sandra Dee is pretty much the doctors pulling the plug on her" He said this as a joke back then and after so many years later it is said by so many. It's like a plot twist like The Sixth Sense. Regardless I can watch this movie anytime. RIP Olivia.
Yeah. I've heard they both died and the car was their descend to Heaven.
Thank you Minty. This was the best tribute to Olivia Newton-John. She was one of my earliest childhood crush. She has a beautiful singing voice. Yes, she will be greatly missed! R.I.P. Sandy
The student with the book on her head is learning good etiquette.
G'day Minty. So sad to hear about the passing of my number one idol ONJ. Grease will always be the word. I met Olivia several times. Spoke with her. Such a caring and considerate human being. Grease along with Annie (1980) Thx for this vid. I love all your vids and commentary.
Rip Livvy.
Growing up in the 1980s, I did see the movie GREASE many times on television and I’ve enjoyed it. Roughly 10 years ago I finally saw the stage musical performance of GREASE at a community stage theater and I didn’t enjoy it as much as I do with the movie version. I’ve been so use to seeing the movie version as a kid, and then seeing it as a live stage performance I was not a fan. That being said I still enjoy the movie version. Then again, the same can be said about ROCK OF AGES: I’ve seen the musical stage performance many times and I enjoyed it a lot, whereas the movie ROCK OF AGES, I was quite disappointed entirely.
People actually looked older. My Dad was bold by the time he was 20. My Mom had long reddish brown hair with colorful lacy dresses and tool underneath big skirts. She gave me her prom dress after she passed away. They also didn't have makeup like we do now. Everything was very colorful and fast because people were inventing new technology and products leading to modern society. Grease was a amazing movie because it was a play before it was taken to the screen. It's very artistic and creative way to show the passed.
RIP Olivia Newton John
A movie that came out when I was really little. We had the soundtrack on vinyl. This was the last movie I saw with my mom before she passed away that summer in the mid to late '2000s. I remember watching this while the snowstorm was going through are area. It was the DVD that I gave her for Christmas. It had a leather coat outside the DVD. Well, this is a true classic. RIP Olivia.
Stockard Channing was the oldest "teenager " and still has aged the best.
She is still amongst us, I think?!
@@bonghunezhou5051 yes! But, unfortunately, Olivia passed away!
I love Rizzo's solo song.
This movie will never be watched the same again without O.N.J. ... R.I.P.

Sorry for the loss of your wife. ☔
Great video. I must have seen this movie in the theater 15 times as a teen. Definitely a great, fun, feelgood movie. I need to revisit it. Thanks, Minty!
Grease taught me that tight leather pants look really good on Olivia Newton John. Good Lord that worked.
Grease is a very fun movie. I originally saw it at a friend's birthday party and got really absorbed into it. I definitely need to see it again soon. very cool exploration. RIP Olivia Newton John!
My parents looked like a Wish version of Danny and Sandy in the early 80s 😂
You'll have to do Xanadu now. It was Gene Kelly's last musical. He did do a couple documentaries and worked on Cats Don't Dance afterwards, but it was the last time he acted in a musical.
