EARLY ACCESS: Dirty Dancing

Nobody puts baby in the corner... But Patrick Swayze could definitely dance with me like this.

EARLY ACCESS: Dirty Dancing

Comments

Grateful for the condense version on this one. This movie is a snore. For more Patrick Swayze, you need to add "Roadhouse" to a poll. I may be wrong, but I think you see his bare butt in that one. And it's got all kinds of over the top fight scenes and stuff.

My sister liked this movie, my wife said she used to watch it when she was young. As for me, I’ve always thought this movie was overrated. To each his own.

Rudy Hernandez

Along with the other suggestions, Red Dawn, Roadhouse, etc… adding “To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar” Yes, that is the title of the movie.

Red Dawn > Dirty Dancing

Actually, this was before she took it down. But thanks for the input.

FYI, in case you never figured it out, it was failing because Ashleigh deleted and re-uploaded the video without the audio error.

Apparently, based on a knowledgeable source, Ms Bishop was also a Radio City Rockette at one point in her career....yep.

Fun facts - The mom in this film is played by Kelly Bishop who is better known to Gilmore Girls fans as Grandma Emily Gilmore. But Kelly is also a Tony winner - she won Best Featured Actress for her role as Sheila in the original Broadway production of "A Chorus Line". This is why they had her say the line "I think she gets this from me" during the end dance scene - it was a nod to her Broadway past. I grew up in the 80's (I was 13 when this came out) and while I enjoyed the movie, I loved the soundtrack, especially "She's Like the Wind". Swayze really was a triple-threat and it is a shame he wasn't utilized to his full potential. While Roadhouse is a lot of fun, I would have loved for him to have steered away from the action realm and more into musicals and comedies. I really wish he was still around to be a part of the recent renaissance of musicals that has been happening.

I tried making this comment on YouTube, but for whatever reason it keeps failing. There's an episode of Golden Girls where Blanche and Rose take Dirty Dancing lessons.

I've always been a sucker for ear-wormy 60's/70s/80's pop ditties and "Time of my Life" is certainly one of those for the ages...definitely a "turner-upper" when it comes on the car radio :)

Patrick Swayze wrote and sang "She's Like the Wind" the song that was playing when he was leaving after getting fired. But I agree with above comments - you need to watch Road House

Glad Ashleigh got this one seen, it's good but not great. Johnny & Baby just didn't have chemistry, it was too forced. Patrick Swayze does have a nice body, that is what deserves 5 stars.🔥 Now, I hope that we can get the 1999 Thomas Crown Affair on the next poll. 👑🍀🤞

I definitely think you had to watch it. I LOVED this movie. It came out when I was 11 or 12. And I thought it was amazing. I watched it on VHS over and over and over. I could relate to Baby sitting in the backseat of the car on vacation just wondering how to grow up and all those expectations parents put on you and how do you break beyond that dynamic. Also, I have heard Jennifer Gray and Patrick Swayze hated each other. Also, I worked with a girl who was Patrick Swayze’s cousin. 🤷🏻‍♀️
