Description DAVE: a middle-aged machinist, spends his days working tirelessly in a machine shop, bound by routine and the demands of his blue collar job. However, once the workday ends, he transforms—rushing to a local theater where he pursues his passion for acting. Balancing the rigid world of industrial labor with the expressive world of performance, Dave finds joy in the stage, despite the exhaustion and sacrifices required. On opening night, as he steps onto the stage, the contrast between his two lives becomes clear. In the final scene, alone in the machine shop after hours, Dave breaks into a dance, embracing the art that truly makes him feel alive.**THINK 40+ KEVIN BACON IN FOOTLOOSE "I Need a Hero""** | ||
