Mark L. Lester’s ROLLER BOOGIE
(PG, 1979, 104 min)
Can a classical musician and a roller skating dude find true love and happiness in the California sun while boogying on skates to 70's disco tunes including Cher, Bob Esty, and Earth, Wind & Fire? Linda Blair stars as Terry Barkley, a Juilliard hopeful and Jim Bray (real life roller skating phenomenon) as Bobby James, a maniac on skates with all the right moves and his sights set on becoming an Olympic Roller Skater. When a ruthless mobster plans to buy Jammers, the local roller rink, for nefarious reasons, Terry gives up on her dreams of playing classical flute to team up with Bobby and enter the Jammer's roller disco contest! Will Bobby see his Olympic skating dreams come true? Will the mobster really buy Jammers? Where's the parental supervision? For the answers to these and other burning questions watch “Roller Boogie”!
