Everybody remembers “Footloose” as a fun and frivolous flick, a quintessential ‘80s movie devoted to dancing and feathered hair. The truth is, besides the obvious entertainment value aspect, it’s actually a very interesting movie with some surprisingly cutting social commentary.

Here’s what I had to say about in a classic film column: “Basically, it's thought of as a music video — back when MTV still played those things — with a hip teenage movie wrapped around it.”

It’s now availble in a terrific 40th anniversary edition that inclues both 4K and Blu-ray — and it can be your very own!

You have until 5 p.m. this Friday, Feb. 16, to enter to win by clicking the button at the bottom of this post.
