During the scene where Johnny and Baby are flirting in the practice room, in which the Neil comes in to tell Johnny that he wants to change the final dance of the season, Johnny is heard saying that he has been working with the staff kids on a new dance that mixes Cuban step, and then demonstrates the dance step you see in the final dance sequence in which they whole staff is dancing down the aisle, before being shot down and told to do the Pachanga instead of the Mambo.

Trivia: $250 in 1963 is equivalent to $2,100 now. So Baby wasn't asking her dad for chump change. And he gave it to her, totally trusting that she really needed it (which she did). Also, the dad (Jerry Orbach) is the voice of Lumiere the candlestick in Disney's animated Beauty and the Beast. He's the voice you hear singing "Be Our Guest."

Well damn, go dad for forking out 😂 Found out about that afterwards, so awesome to know 😁 - Stef

[@henninggirl261]

Due to the type of dancing, the choreographer had 3 professional “dance couples” and then a bunch of locals. They had a hard rule that none of the amateur couples were allowed to date each other until 6 weeks after shooting began, to avoid dealing with any drama. A week into rehearsals 2 guys were apparently like “so...how serious were you about that ‘no dating’ thing?” 😂

[@henninggirl261]

Patrick Swayze had an uncanny ability as Johnny Castle to never make the audience feel like he’s taking advantage of Baby. It’s a tightrope performance and it’s a perfect. When he crooks his finger at her to dance, it never feels creepy or predatory. It’s exciting but still safe. We know he likes her but will never be inappropriate with her.

It's a minuscule detail, but I love that Baby's example for a relationship is a man who loves and respects his wife, and loves his daughters and the family he has in a time where the jokes were all about husbands hating their wives (which we see earlier as well with the comic's joke about finding a woman exactly like his mother). It puts her already in a place where she can see and understand what a healthy relationship is and I think it actually helps with the development of her relationship with Johnny

he injured himself pretty bad on the 2nd to last jump he did so the final one he did (the one they used) hurt him BAD.

[@-breakofdawn-]

The jump wasn’t even what he talked about in his autobiography, but he said the scene where they practiced balance for the lift on that log above the river was much worse for his knee, since balancing involves so many tiny movements and due to the many surgeries he had on that knee after completely smashing it up twice when he was young, it was just bone grinding on bone. He went to the hospital right after to have it drained. Which was something he actually did very often, also when shooting Point Break. He was so determined to not let an injury like that slow him down, his level of dedication he always had for everything he did was just insane.

After that, a suggestion: I always put off watching this film because I heard some people say that the only good thing was the final dance, but last year Leena Norms put out a video talking about why it is one of her favourites, why it is a radical movie that people don't make anything quite like anymore. I was sold and watched it the next day. If you're into video essays or just knowing movie trivia, I definitely recommend her video.

WTF are her AND the baby going to eat, not even mentioning how is she going to afford to pay for her living situation, rent, bills and clothes and other necessities for her baby.

It also comes as no surprise that the kind of people that tend to make these arguments are either trolls or people that are, at the very least, well-to-do enough that in the eventually of 'accidentally' getting knocked up, all they have to do is relax, plan a baby shower and have others around them fuss over their comfort and well being.

But I think, every women should be allowed to do this. Make a own decision. The biological process of pregnancy means, that there is a baby in our womb, which takes everything, what it needs, from u, the mother.Thats one of the reasons, why humans are so far developed, because we ensure the perfect upbringing possible. But I think, women shouldnt be dictatored by the biology and be able to decide, if they want to share their body or not. Moreover I think, its good, that a new life starts with a decision. You made your way, and I think, that you made it, because of your mothers love. It wasnt everything perfect, but she loved you and thats why you can love others.

Quick comment about Patrick Swayze: You were right in that he knew how to dance before this movie. His dream was never to become an actor, he wanted to become a professional ballet dancer and that was what he was studying for. However, during sports practice, he got a knee injury that prevented him from living out that dream. So he made a new dream: To become an actor. Actually, Patrick Swayze was a much better dancer than the character Johnny Castle so he always had to tone it down. (Trivia: He asked Ortega, the choreographer, if he could have just one moment that would challenge him. And that's where you get the triple spin off the stage at the final dance. Doing that scene over and over busted his knee injury again, which led to him having huge amounts of pain and going to the hospital to have his knee drain).

I love seeing this movie get the attention it deserves!

My absolute favorite, and your guys’ commentary was hilarious. Thx!

[@nessaarandur7740]

It's interesting that studio exec's takeaway from this was "ok, people love this because of the dancing, let's flood them with dancing movies", when it was always the combination of the fantastic characters, the solid story, and the dancing. Dancing movies are still shit if the story isn't solid.

[@sarahxo2317]

Yes to this comment. It’s like the first Step Up was great because it had a good story and had character development but the rest of the series got worse cause it focused mostly on the dancing.

[@themoviebud1988]

That's so damn typical of the suits to not recognise any of the best parts and only focus on the superficial. You can't make a good movie without solid characters and storytelling, no matter the gimmick 🤷‍♂️ - Stef

So happy he changed his mind 😄 - Stef

[@cherrylattimore]

I think one reason why this movie is so well rounded with believable women's character arcs is because it was made by women. Written, produced, cast, - two women were in charge of every aspect of this movie and it shows. For a detailed look at the making of the movie Netflix has a show called the movies that made us and dirty dancing is one of the movies they talk about (along with ghostbusters and die hard) and it's seriously fascinating. Check it out if you have an hour to kill. Seeing how well this holds up almost 40 years later is a testiment to women in film and it's too bad that studios still don't think women can make movies that will be enjoyed by all audiences. Great commentary Budz; glad you both finally got to see it

From the first time I watched it, the monolog that Baby gives to her dad is something I've always taken with me. When people say to make the world better they 99% of the time mean to make them like us.

[@KaiAquila]

I love, that the characters in this movie are so human. Like Baby is allowed to act frustrated, insecure, stressed and overwhelmed. She gets antagonistic at Johhny during the lessons and he gets annoyed, but it's okay, because real people are like that, even when they are passionate about something, it doesn't mean you just bare through all the troubles without ever just wanting to never touch it again. Most movies today never show us this struggle. They show the sweat and the effort, but rarely the emotional journey, if they show anything at all and not have the character be perfect within minutes.

[@JoyfulOrb]

The actor playing her father is Jerry Orbach, most well-known for decades of acting on Law and Order he reminded everyone that he started with YEARS on Broadway when he sang and performed the role of Lumiere in Disney's Animated Beauty and the Beast! He danced and sang and acted before Swayze, two great men!

Just a point. When Johnny tells the dad that he is responsible for Penny, the dad automatically thinks he is responcible for Penny’s situation.
