Forty years after dancing his way into everyone’s hearts, Kevin Bacon made a widely celebrated return to Payson High School, the very school in Utah that became the location for his iconic 1984 movie, Footloose.
The Mystic River star, 65, was greeted by thrilled students for their very last prom at the school before its demolition and relocation to a new address.
“It’s been 40 years. I mean, that just blows my mind. Things look a little different around here. I’d say the thing that looks the most different is me,” Kevin said as he addressed the crowd at the school.
