@Zaimee  A big hello from me!  What part of Queens?  I grew up in Jackson Heights and met my husband there as a teenager.  We do not live in NY any longer but still have ties to the area as we both have family members still in sections of Queens.

A tie between Saturday Night Fever and Grease, with Grease pulling ahead some. It's probably because I'm a huge fan of Olivia Newton-John and Stockard Channing!   Smiley Happy

Travolta stated in the Reelz SNF back story that he insisted on being filmed full body showing in his dance scenes like the ones pictured. he said if he was shown lower half only, people coud say it was not really him, and after he studied the moves so hard, he wanted to be shown !!!

 I once saw an interview with him. The show host was telling him how cool he was. Travolta said, 'I'm not cool. I'm just good at playing cool.' Disagree, John. You are cool. You just can't help it.
