Grease is considered as one of the most beloved classic musicals. But it isn't without any problematic moments. The film reinforces traditional gender roles and stereotypes. Danny Zuko, played by John Travolta, is portrayed as the cool guy who must maintain his tough image. In contrast, Sandy Olsson (played by Olivia Newton-John) changes her appearance and behavior to be accepted by Danny and his friends. This sends a message that one must change who they are to fit in or be loved.
