Whilst watching Grease, one of the most popular films in the genre of make-over movies, I took some screenshots of examples of Sandy, the female protagonist, before she modifies her appearance. Interestingly, the change she makes at the end of the film is reflective of Danny's style, therefore, to be accepted by him. Whether or not this would have been a permanent alteration for the character, or just a demonstration of Sandy's ability to be 'one of the guys' is not stated. Throughout the film, Sandy embodies the naive, girl-next-door image. Meeting Danny obviously has a fundamental impact on her, influencing the choices she makes and ultimately transforming not just her visual appearance, but her understanding of the world.
