Product Details

Dirty Dancing spawned two successful soundtracks, a short-lived TV series, and a stage musical. It may be predictable, but Grey and Swayze have chemistry, charisma, and all the right moves. It's a sometimes silly movie with occasionally mind-boggling dialogue--"No one puts Baby in a corner!"--that nonetheless carries an underlying message about tolerance and is filled with the kind of exuberant spirit that's hard for even the most cynical to resist. Not that they'd ever admit it. --Kathy Fennessy

This review is from: Dirty Dancing (Ultimate Edition - French/English Version) (DVD)
Whom is a better dancer than Patrick? Besides being gorgeous, he's a terrific actor, & this movie will make all of us remember him forever.The movie is engraved in my heart forever, & seeing Patrick so alive & so vital will make me remember him forever.(Not to be lost- but all the music in this movie is fantabulous, especially if you are a fan of the 50's & 60's)

The best movie from the 80s,
By Deanna (Maryland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dirty Dancing (Widescreen) (DVD)
In Dirty Dancing, Jennifer Grey stars as Frances "Baby" Houseman, a girl who goes on vacation to the Catskills with her father, mother and sister in the summer of 1963. She meets the handsome dance instructor Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze), who works at the lodge where they're staying, and is smitten with him. When she volunteers to fill in for Johnny's dance partner, Baby experiences love and life firsthand from the free-spirited Johnny.The DVD version of this movie is terrific. The clarity is amazing, the sound is crisp & clear and the bonuses are wonderful. With the bonus features, you get commentary from the movie's creator, a behind-the-scenes featurette (with no audio), the videos for "She's Like the Wind," "I've Had the Time of My Life" & "Hungry Eyes," biographies about the cast & crew (Jennifer Grey, Patrick Swayze, Cynthia Rhodes, Jerry Orbach, Jack Weston, the director, the producer, the writer and the choreographer), a short "Reliving the 60s" documentary, the theatrical trailer and a concert featuring the music from the movie. If you love Dirty Dancing, I highly recommended getting this DVD. It would be a great addition to add to your collection!
