Win Passes To FOOTLOOSE Screening In St. Louis

Who’s ready to Party it Up and Cut FOOTLOOSE with passes to the St. Louis advance screening of director Craig Brewer’s new film?!?!
Brewer is known for his distinct aesthetic and vision as seen in his critically-acclaimed films HUSTLE & FLOW and BLACK SNAKE MOAN. With a reputation of being a filmmaker who infuses his work with realism, grit and passion, Brewer isn’t afraid to shed light on cultural nuances that are deemed taboo by some. Though not a seemingly obvious choice for a mainstream ’80s classic, Brewer loved the idea of revisiting a film that had a significant impact on his own life.
“When I was 13, FOOTLOOSE had a profound effect on me and completely rocked my dome,” explains Brewer. “The film had teen rebellion couched in community and a religious storyline that didn’t hit you over the head. I felt that it was truly a story that could be told today and still be relevant, entertaining and essentially still FOOTLOOSE,” says Brewer
The screening of FOOTLOOSE is Tuesday, 10/11 at GALAXY 14 CINE, 7pm.

Synopsis:
Writer/Director Craig Brewer (“Hustle & Flow,” “Black Snake Moan”) delivers a new take of the beloved 1984 classic film, FOOTLOOSE. Ren MacCormack (played by newcomer Kenny Wormald) is transplanted from Boston to the small southern town of Bomont where he experiences a heavy dose of culture shock. A few years prior, the community was rocked by a tragic accident that killed five teenagers after a night out and Bomont’s local councilmen and the beloved Reverend Shaw Moore (Dennis Quaid) responded by implementing ordinances that prohibit loud music and dancing. Not one to bow to the status quo, Ren challenges the ban, revitalizing the town and falling in love with the minister’s troubled daughter Ariel (Julianne Hough) in the process.
Starring Kenny Wormald, Julianne Hough, Andie MacDowell and Dennis Quaid, FOOTLOOSE will cut loose in theaters on October 14, 2011.
