#14: Grease

Randal Kleiser’s Grease cranks up 1950s high-school nostalgia with John Travolta’s cool-guy Danny and Olivia Newton-John’s sweet Sandy trying to meet in the middle. Leather jackets, pompadours, and killer tunes turn puppy love into a Rydell High spectacle.

Catchy numbers like “Summer Nights” and that iconic carnival finale make it endlessly rewatchable, proving teen romance plus rock ‘n’ roll rebellion equals pure feel-good magic.
