comment
Shake, Rattle & Rock! is a 1956 musical comedy-drama film directed by Edward L. Cahn, starring Mike Connors,note billed as "Touch Connors" Lisa Gaye, and Sterling Holloway.A group of concerned adults try to ban that newfangled Rock & Roll music in their town because they think that the music promotes juvenile delinquency. It's now up to a disc jockey and his Beatnik-ish right-hand man to defend the music in a televised trial. The movie also features several rock and roll performances, most notably from Fats Domino.

comment
Beatnik: Axe is an example in that, while he doesn't have the stereotypical look, he has the language down to a T, daddy-o. He seems to be what would have been called a Hipster at the time the film was made.note A white guy who emulated the lifestyles of black jazz musicians, as opposed to its modern meaning of 20-something-year-olds interested in "alternative" culture. This is what makes him express empathy towards the rock 'n' roll cause.

Slobs Versus Snobs: The snobbish elder adults antagonize the rock 'n' roll-listening youth. The film's Tagline is in fact, "Rock 'n' Rock vs. the 'Squares'".

The '50s: The movie is a window to the early days of rock 'n' roll in the '50s, in the vein of Rock Around the Clock and Go, Johnny, Go!.

Dance Party Ending: Of course the film ends with the youngsters dancing after rock 'n' roll is saved, with the older people (now convinced that they had nothing to worry about) joining in.
