Loosely based on events that took place in the small, rural, and extremely religious farming town of Elmore City, Oklahoma in 1978. Dancing had been banned for nearly ninety years, until a group of high school teenagers challenged it.
In a 2013 interview with Howard Stern, Kevin Bacon admitted that he has actually tipped DJs at weddings NOT to play Footloose. He stated that people expect him to dance the song as he did in the movie. In truth, while he did do some of the dancing there was also a dancing double for him as well.
The scenes where Chris Penn's character had to learn how to dance were added to the script because Penn really could not dance.
The dancing feet in the opening credit sequence contained many of the cast and crew. Over 150 different pairs of feet were shot. The dancer with the gold shoes was Kenny Loggins.
Chris Penn could not dance, so they had to teach him in terms of what he already knew: wrestling.
"Ren: You like Men at Work? Willard: Which man? Ren: Men at Work. Willard: Well where do they work? Ren: No, they don't, they're a music group. Willard: Well what do they call themselves? Ren: Oh no! What about the Police? Willard: What about 'em? Ren: You ever heard them? Willard: No, but I seen them. Ren: Where, in concert? Willard: No, behind you."
"Ariel: Do you wanna kiss me? Ren: Someday. Ariel: [Gets in Ren's car] What's this "someday" shit? Ren: Well, it's just I get the feeling you've been kissed a lot, and I'm afraid I'd suffer by comparison."
