Made in 1980, the lovely Olivia starred as one of the nine Greek muses, Kira, sent to inspire a struggling insipid artist, Sonny, and a jolly old man, Danny, who has lost his passion for music. In between the glitzy 80's special effects and ELO songs, Sonny and Kira fall in love (ahhhhhh) and roller skate a lot.
The end of the movie is the highlight with the rollerskating choreography and Olivia singing a whole lot of classic hits, including the immortal song, XANADU.

This movie is a must see, especially for scene stealing Gene Kelly modelling some really hot 80's suits and the highly sophisticated animation sequence. |
