Grease 2 Summary
MPAA Rating: PG
Director: Patricia Birch
Genres: Comedy, Musical
Rating:
Given the runaway success of Grease, which became the biggest-grossing movie musical of all time, it was all but inevitable that there would be a sequel, and four years later this follow-up brought a new group of kids back to Rydell High. It's 1961, and Stephanie Zinone (Michelle_Pfeiffer) is the tough leader of the Pink Ladies, while Michael Carrington (Maxwell_Caulfield) is a clean-cut British exchange student. Michael likes Stephanie, but the Pink Ladies' by-laws prevent her from dating guys who aren't members of the T-Birds, their affiliated male gang. However, when a Zorro-like masked avenger on a motorcycle rescues Stephanie from a gang of ill-mannered toughs, she's eager to get to know the hero with the cool wheels. Any guesses as to who he might be? Eve_Arden, Sid_Caesar, and Dody_Goodman return from the first film as members of the Rydell High faculty, while actual '50s teen icons Tab_Hunter and Connie_Stevens are on board as new members of the staff; Didi_Conn as Frenchy is the only one of the students to appear in both movies. Patricia Birch, who served as choreographer on Grease, made her debut as a director on Grease 2; while she's remained active as a choreographer, she hasn't directed again since. Mark Deming, Rovi
