But the movie plays like one long, sad, compromise it places packaging ahead of ambition. It could have made the obnoxious owner's son less of a one-dimensional s.o.b. It could have found a big scene a little more original than the heroine stepping in for the injured star. Baby has grown up in privileged surroundings and all expect her to go on to college, join the Peace Corps and save the world before marrying a doctor, just like her father. This movie could have been about the subjects it pussyfoots around so coyly. In 1963, Frances 'Baby' Houseman, a sweet daddy's girl, goes with her family to a resort in upstate New York's Catskill Mountains. But the filmmakers rely so heavily on cliches, on stock characters in old situations, that it's as if they never really had any confidence in their performers. Swayze is a great dancer, and Grey, who is appealing, also is a great dancer. This might have been a decent movie if it had allowed itself to be about anything. I guess people who care about such things are supposed to be able to read between the lines, and the great unwashed masses of American moviegoers are condemned to think the old man doesn't like Swayze's dirty dancing. It doesn't much matter, since the movie itself never, ever uses the word "Jewish" or says out loud what obviously is the main point of the plot: the family's opposition to a Gentile boyfriend of low social status. The movie makes some kind of a half-hearted attempt to rip off " West Side Story" by making the girl Jewish and the boy Italian - or Irish, I forget. And after some doubt, Swayze becomes her dance coach.Ĭan you figure out the rest of the plot? What's your best guess? Does Grey turn out to be a great dancer? Does Swayze fall in love with her? Do they dance together in front of everybody, while her father fumes and her mother keeps a cool head, and then does Orbach finally realize his mistake and accept the kid as his daughter's boyfriend? Are there stars in the sky? Meanwhile, the sick girl cannot dance in a big show at a nearby hotel, so Grey volunteers to take her place.

Her father ( Jerry Orbach) assumes that Swayze was the father of the child, and so he is violently opposed to any romance between his Baby and this greasy jerk. Meanwhile, a waiter impregnates Swayze's partner, and when there's an emergency, Baby asks her father to help out. At first, he doesn't pay her much attention, but then he kinda starts to like the kid, like in millions of other movies. It's pretty clear they're in a movie.īaby falls in love with the best-looking dancer, a handsome jock named Johnny Castle ( Patrick Swayze), who dances professionally in the hotel's show. The actors playing the staff in this movie are such good dancers, and their dancing is so overchoreographed, that there's no question these are just ordinary kids who can dance pretty well.
