Newcomer music teacher Jack Cabe introduces them to [[rock and roll]], until headmaster Benedict threatens to fire Cabe. Cabe instructs the boys to get a radio and listen to the show Midnight Rider. Jesse bets with the guys that he would have sex with Sara, but instead falls in love with her. The boys go to the club where they see people enjoying rock and roll to the hilt; Jesse gets inspired and gives an impressive performance on stage. Cabe gets into an altercation with the town sheriff, who decides to find the truth about his past. At school Jesse and his friends connect with the girls while attending a lecture on the corrupting effects of modern music and television. One of the guys who is attracted to Sara tells her about the bet. After her initial anger she is won over by Jesse by his honest demeanor and truth. Cabe is discovered to be a murderer on the run and flees the police. Jesse steals Eugene's car and goes to Cabe, where Cabe confesses to killing a man while defending his black friend in a club where they were performing. Jesse asks him to stop running, but Jack rejects his advice. The Benedict Boys band is scheduled to play at a fair, and they begin with usual music, but upon seeing Jack surrendering to police, Jesse starts playing rock and roll to the delight of young people and disapproval of the adults. Headmaster Benedict unsuccessfully tries to stop the band while his daughter resumes her relationship with Jesse. == Cast == * [[John Travolta]] as Jack Cabe * [[Jamie Walters\|James Walters]] as Jesse Tucker Line 40 ⟶ 57: ==Reception== The film was poorly received by critics.
