Synopsis
Cashing in on the rock ‘n’ roll craze sweeping America in the fifties, Shake, Rattle and Rock plays up the generation gap between hipster teens and older ‘squares’. When a quartet of Puritan do-gooders try to impose a ban on the ‘devil’s music’, TV producer Touch Connors does his best to convince the squares that the new music is harmless fun. Sterling Holloway (Meet John Doe) is a riot as Connors’ jive-talking assistant, who lays on the hipster slang so heavily in one scene that he requires English subtitles!
A showcase for the top rock ‘n’ roll talents of the day, Shake, Rattle and Rock stars Fats Domino performing “I'm in Love Again”, “Ain't That A Shame” and “Honey Chile”, while Big Joe Turner rocks out on “Feelin' Happy” and “Lipstick, Powder and Paint”. This teen drive-in classic was remade for TV in 1994 and starred Renée Zellweger.
