You'll be Dancing in the Aisles!

Movie: Hairspray
Jan's Rating: 10
Time: 107 Minutes

Jan's Opinion: This is such a feel-good movie you'll be dancing on your way out of the theater. John Travolta is hilarious as a woman, but he sure can make his fat woman role dance! Michelle Pfeiffer looks anorexic and has the only nasty role in the movie, but then the gal who plays her daughter isn't very nice either. I was surprised how well Michelle can sing. Queen Latifah was excellent as always. This movie takes place in the early 60's when segregation was still very prevalant, and to show you how far we have become, my 9-year old grandson asked me "what is a negro?", when the word was mentioned in the movie. He enjoyed the movie almost as much as I did and we both highly recommend it!
