Best part of Dirty Dancing movie. DIRTY DANCING is a film about change. The evolving nature of relationships within the family, the changes in one's view of the world during their coming of age, etc. The story takes place during August of 1963, the final weeks of the last summer of innocence for the American people. The many personal changes experienced by the characters reflect the many changes in American society that would be marked by the Kennedy assassinations and Vietnam.

Female movie go'ers adored this film and repeated trips to the movie houses made it the world's most successful dance movie. As a male I find the romantic pairing of ultimate stud Patrick Swayze with very plain Jennifer Grey very hard to accept. This would be fatal for most romantic dramas, and it also may have create the intense dislike expressed by most male reviewers.

The film's soundtrack found #1 status before the release of the movie. To this day it is nearly impossible to attend a wedding reception without hearing a DIRTY DANCING song.

Near the midpoint of the film Baby's mother wakes up and asks Baby's father, "Is anything wrong?"

Baby's father, the anti-change family member, attempts to keep all that is happening a secret. He tells his wife to go back to sleep. However, resist as one can, change is unstopable. DIRTY DANCING is the story of one person waking up just at the final moments of our country's last sleep in innocence.

  • We had an entire living room wall devoted to mirror and I taught my little sister the final dance (she had to stand of the couch for parts that weren't lifts lol) and we tried to learn the entire dance! I will alway remember this movie fondly. I had 2 sisters so there were 3 girls in our family ...you can imagine, this movie was one of our all time faves! RIP ...will miss Patrick forever.

  • i love how he checks her out before asking her to dance :D

  • Love this! <3 I totally think the grinding back then was so much dirtier than it is today.

  • this is exactly the reason why i do love this movie so much :)

  • This one of my favorite movies of all times! Patrick is a great dancer and he is truly missed. RIP Patrick oh yeah Jennifer did a great job too!

  • Great scene. Great dancing. Like the way he checks her out and then makes his move. The start of a romance. Was indeed a sad day when he died.

  • THIS NEVER GETS OLD TO ME!!! Can someone dance with me like this!! I wanna dance with someone off this joint!! :)
