“What’s a merengue? Isn’t that a pie?” I’m dead…that broke me. Lol 😂 🤣😂🤣. That comment made my Friday. Thank you
Same. LOL just cackling over here
Too freaking funny
As a chef, I've heard this many times, its not that unusual.
Nothing like a 30 something man, going after a 17 year old girl.
Salsa and merengues lol sounds like a Mexican pie.. just kidding
This movie was my wife's and my first date. By halfway through, we were holding hands. We celebrated 31 years in September.
Congrats! If you guys have any kids you can tell them if it weren't for Patrick Swayze they wouldn't exist 😉
Happy anniversary, and here's to many more! 🥂🤞🎊
Congratulations, man!
Awesome!
Congrats! This movie for me was a first date with a girl I had a crush on. Alas, we didn't work out over time. But the date went well. Lol
Fun Fact II, The song used when Swayze drives away after he was fired was actually sung by him. Man was multi talented.
He also wrote the song.
she's like the wind
Patrick Swayze was the total package in his prime. He did Dirty Dancing to Roadhouse to Ghost to Point Break. Guy was amazing in everything
The song "She's Like the Wind", that plays when Johnny is leaving after being fired, was written and performed by Patrick Swayze.
"She's like the wind, through my tree."
Yeah the dude could do it all, what a legend...
And that song made him one of the highest selling recording artists of all time.
Rob Lowe has said Swayze wrote that song way before DD and was trying to get Coppola to use it in Outsiders which totally didn't fit at all.
I didn't know this, how awesome! Swayze was a really cool guy
"What's the merengue? Isn't that a pie?" Literally crying!
Loooooooooooolllll
That's why we love our Cassie😊🥧
Only Cassie...she is the best .....still on the floor...she is the best...
That was pretty damn funny, can't lie, lol.
I had to pause it as that was SOOOOOOO hilarious! THANK YOU CASSIE!!!!
Patrick Swayze: martial arts, acting, dancing, singing; wow. Was so much more than a triple threat. Such an amazing talent. Obviously he'll be missed.
And he sang that song She's Like the Wind toward the end when he sped away in the car, lol.
He was also a cowboy with his own ranch irl so yeah, man of many talents
Patrick Swayze was Amazing actor/artist ,This movie was released same year i was born its a Classic
@@nsasupporter7557 August 23' So my Birthday is next Month :-)
The dude had it all. The total package. It's a shame he left us
"She's gonna make two first moves? I'm so proud of her!" 😊😊
The song "(I've Had) The Time of My Life" was actually made for the film, and it won an Oscar, a Golden Globe and a Grammy.
And went to number one on Billboard Hot 100 and Adult Contemp charts. I was ten when this movie came out and this song was EVERYWHERE.
Always fun and a must do on karaoke night 🎤
An Emmy? I think you mean a Grammy. Movies don't win Emmys, which is for TV.
@@rustincohle2135 Thanks. Corrected.
His mother was a dance instructor and choreographer, that's where he learned to dance.
And Jennifer Grey's father is the legendary Joel Grey, a singing, dancing actor who has won both a Tony and an Oscar for his role in CABARET.
From "I carried a watermelon" to "Me? I'm scared of everything. I'm scared of what I saw, of what I did, of who I am. And most of all, I'm scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I'm with you" is some of the best character development and two of my favourite lines in any movie ever.
Fun Fact. Patrick was already quite the accomplished dancer. The scenes where he was teaching Baby (Jennifer Grey) to dance were real. They actually filmed Patrick teaching her so that the frustration and chemistry in the scene's would feel authentic and organic (seeing her go from not knowing how to dance at all to quite accomplished dancer).
That’s why you see him rolling his eyes and getting annoyed as she keeps giggling and he is trying to really teach her.
When I was a kid I asked my grandma why the movie was called Dirty Dancing and she pointed out that his knees get dirty when he slides on them in the last dance scene. It was years before I figured out she lied to me lol.
For more Patrick Swayze I suggest "Ghost" from 1990!
Agree!!!!! Whoopie got the Oscar for best supporting actress. Fantastic movie.
Oh yes, please, it's such a tearjerker, especially the ending! 😭💔
Point Break!
Molly, you in danger girl.
Gotta store some tissues
-I always feel really emotional when Baby apologises to her dad but holds him to account too. You can see him almost cracking when she's there but completely loosing it when she walks off. Fantastic acting from both of them!
- Fun fact: they had real trouble distributing this movie because customs officials looked at the title and thought it was porn XD
“I thought she was going for a prenatal checkup.” How innocent you are lol.
Yeah, I was obsessed with this movie as a kid and the whole pregnancy/abortion storyline just completely flew over my head. I just liked dancing I guess, lol. I love watching stuff when you're older and realizing just how much you didn't understand as a child. Like cartoons with dirty jokes and stuff. 😂 Now a lot of people watch this movie and don't understand part of that storyline because they forget it's set in 1963 - so they just think Baby's Dad is a jerk who's against it for no reason.
Dirty Dancing never gets old. The soundtrack, the characters and the story. It just holds up so damn well.
I can remember a family get together several years ago. We were all there for a few days and we just chilled. One afternoon, this movie came on the cable TV and with nothing better to do, we just started slowly adding people to our audience as the film rolled. Mom stopped by as one of the group dances started. She asked what the name of the movie was and we told her. She said back in those days, they didn't call it "dirty dancing", they called it "dry humping".
At just that moment, my father walked in, stopped, looked and as he left he said..."Ain't nobody dry on that dance floor." It took a while for all of us to stop laughing so hard. I sure miss Dad.
HAHAHAHAHAH. Poppa know best. That was a legendary line.
That's absoluitely fucking hilarious man. I laughed out loud cause it's so damn true.
those are the best kinds of memories
The man, the myth, the legend
I don’t think the movie would have been nearly as much of a success if it had gone by the title “Dry Humping”.
The director encouraged the actors to improvise. During the montage scene, when Jennifer Grey is repeatedly giggling, those were actually outtakes. Patrick Swayze was genuinely frustrated that Grey could not get through the scene without giggling. It worked so well that the director decided to keep those shots in the film.
Because it was natural. Any other way would be unnatural.
I just watched an obnoxious other reactor, react to this, and she had to constantly have jokes, wink in the camera, talk through the movie, be the STAR of it, instead of letting the material she was reacting to, be the main thing and just simply react. You were reacting to the actual movie! It was a delight! You werent trying to make jokes, and be the funny witty reactor. It was natural and didnt overpower the actual movie so that you were missing parts, pieces etc. Loved it.
Well said.
You mentioned when Johnny first started teaching Baby to dance that it was “like Dancing With The Stars”. Fun fact: Jennifer Grey competed on DWTS in 2010 & won! She dedicated one of her dances to Patrick Swayze. She was 50 yrs old when she competed & is the oldest female to ever win. She also set a record for the most perfect scores.
Jennifer Grey would have had a much more successful career if she hadn't gotten that nose job.
@@davidsumner7604 I think she said something similar herself.
@@davidsumner7604 I didn't even recognize her when she was on Friends.
@@davidsumner7604 I agree.
@@andyholmes6380 I’ve watched friends multiple times and dirty dancing the same amount and I had no idea that was Jennifer!! I’m shocked
Patrick Swayze was a formally trained ballet dancer. Quite versatile in his dancing abilities.
Patrick was a classically trained dancer, and so was his wife. Which is why he was so good in movies like Roadhouse w/ martial arts. He said to him it was a form of dance, so it came naturally to him. And let's not mention that Patrick is the one singing the song "She's like the Wind" when he leaves after getting fired.
Jennifer Gray's giggling when Patrick Swayze ran his fingers down the arm were actual outtakes from the movie and Patrick was so annoyed hahah it's such a great tidbit. Also the shooting was notoriously awful because of the summer heat and mosquitos etc. I adore this movie, it aged so well.
Patrick Swayze was a trained dancer. He used to perform with his wife. They were both professional dancers. I think she is still alive.
She is
His mom was also a dancer
Not only is she still alive, she's working on a proper sequel as of sometime last year.
Before acting he was a pro ballet dancer and he also knew ice skating.
Lisa Niemi is still alive yes.
Also...if you have not seen "Ghost" with Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, and Whoopi Goldberg yet, that one is also a MUST! :)
Man I kinda hope she hasnt seen that one cuzz I wanna see her reaction to it!!
Yes Cassie should watch "GHOST". I bet a dollar she cries....
YES!!! That movie is right up her alley. Humor and incredible romance, with a tiny bit of scary/stress thrown in. :)
@@williammassey8939 Niagara Falls
excellent suggestion!
It's a rare treat to get to see you watch a film so perfectly tailored to you yet somehow got past you the first time. I'm sure all of your followers were literally rubbing their hands together in anticipation when they found out this was the next one up.
Patrick Swayze was a world class dancer long before he was ever an actor.
"What's the Merengue? Isn't that a pie!?" I think we have a new category for the Poppies...
Just some interesting facts about Dirty Dancing:
The film was first aired at the Cannes Film Festival in 1987 and while costing just $5 million to make, has earned over $214 million worldwide.
The scene where Baby was uncontrollably laughing as Johnny stroked her arm, turned out to be a complete accident. Screenwriter Eleanor Bergstein explained that “It was very late at night and we were all exhausted. Jennifer [Grey] is ticklish and she started to laugh, and Patrick got exasperated.” She added,”When we saw it, we burst out laughing, and when Jennifer and Patrick saw it for the first time, they burst out laughing because we’d completely forgotten that this had even happened.”
In the dancing scene where Johnny and Baby were crawling towards each other, they were just messing around and warming up for the scene, but producers loved the moment so much that they kept it in the movie.
Dirty Dancing, birthed the saying “Nobody puts Baby in the corner,” but even though everyone else couldn’t get enough of the line, Patrick Swayze was not in favor of it. In fact, Swayze hated the line so much he asked a number of times to get rid of it altogether. His requests were declined and it became one of the more recognized lines of the movie that is still reused today. In hindsight, Patrick admitted that it worked.
I always used to think that if I admitted liking this flick, I’d have to turn in my man card. But screw it. This is a great, fun movie that is well directed and has great choreography and music. I always enjoy the hell out of it whenever I watch it.
There are many things that I learned about being a man through watching this movie. Men should continue to take notes from Swayze...
Hell no, this is a great movie lol
The chemistry between Swayze and Grey is so amazing, but even more so when you consider that they really hated each other, they didnt get along at all!
Yup, this was going to be my comment. I think Swayze had to try really hard to bury the hatchet with Jennifer before she could be convinced to do the movie. Apparently there was some bad blood from a previous movie they did. Maybe "Red Dawn"? I don't remember.
They hated each other before Dirty Dancing, from their time working on Red Dawn. But they said they got past it and actually enjoyed working together on this movie.
@@ClickToPreview yes, I’m pretty sure it was friction that developed during Red Dawn. I thought the actors relationship much more amicable once the DD was in production.
@@ClickToPreview yes, on Red Dawn the director told Swayze to be very bossy, method acting as the leader of a group of guerillas. So he was told to be a dick.
They were in Red Dawn together.
Sometimes you just know Cassie's going to love a movie.
As expected, this has been one of my favorites of Cassie's reactions! I did shake my head every time she asked if Penny was in love with Johnny or vice versa. Two things that I love about this movie are the concept that straight men and women (and exes at that) can still be friends, and that there is never any competition between Baby and Penny.
Ok y'all it's official... Cassie's reactions make every movie just a little better. I now know I need every movie I love to have her popcorn seasoning sprinkled on em. Cassie I had the time of my life watching this. And I OWE IT ALL TO YOU!!! LOL
"Cassie I had the time of my life watching this. And I OWE IT ALL TO YOU!!!"
🙂
Patrick Swayze was a MASTER dancer.
His mother was a dancer, choreographer, and dance instructor, who founded and directed both the Houston Jazz Ballet Company and her own Houston dance studio, the Swayze School of Dance. In addition to her own dance studio, for eighteen years she taught dance and choreography at the University of Houston.
Her most famous students included future Emmy Award winner Debbie Allen, Randy Quaid, Jaclyn Smith and future ten-time Tony Award winner Tommy Tune.
All five of her children became dancers and actors.
So, he was learning to dance from his mom basically his ENTIRE childhood.
During Patrick's time in school, he was trained in ice skating, classical ballet, and acting in school plays.
In 1972, he moved to New York City to complete his formal dance training at the Harkness Ballet and Joffrey Ballet schools.
He was pretty good on skates too. ua-cam.com/video/RvDSWS2KXTQ/v-deo.html
Randy Quaid? Like “cousin Eddy” Randy Quaid?
@@johnmorris8444 Bizarrely, yes.
@@BobSiefken Yea. I imagine that was probably a fairly natural extension of his ice skating.
@@ieyke "sh*tter's full!" That guy was crazy.
Patrick Swayze hosted SNL back in the day; during his monologue, he did a ballroom dance with his wife. He was an accomplished dancer.
My absolute *obscure* favorite part is Baby's mother saying "I think she gets it from me." For those of us who remember Kelly Bishop waaaaay before Gilmore Girls, when she was Sheila, featured singer/dancer in the original cast of the ensemble Broadway show A Chorus Line. Saw it in 1976, on a field trip to NYC in high school.
The OC of _A Chorus Line_ is on UA-cam! ua-cam.com/video/uu6D3Y2O7cs/v-deo.html - scratchy and B&W, but so incredibly beautiful!
Wait, are you saying Emilie Gilmore was in the movie A Chorus Line with Michael Douglas?
@@Mantarhochen Baby's mother in _Dirty Dancing_ was Kelly Bishop, the original Sheila in the Broadway _A Chorus Line_ , but she was also Emily Gilmore, you are right there. The movie Sheila was played by Vicki Frederick.
@@Mantarhochen No, she didn't do that godawful movie...... she was in the original Broadway cast, as Sheila
I think the most AMAZING thing about this movie is the chemistry they had in it. ESPECIALLY, since they hated each after filming "Red Dawn". They got over it during the audition process and wonderfully pulled it off.
"what's the merengue, isn't that a pie?!" I laughed too hard
as a human of hispanic descent ..😭😭😭🤣🥰
I died
me, too. lol.
As soon as my daughters became adults I introduced them to Dirty Dancing, Pretty Woman, Flashdance, Pride and Prejudice, Titanic and so many more, it's a rite of passage
They are both children of dancers. His mom had a dance studio that he grew up in. Her father was a famous Broadway dancer, singer, actor. Also, the woman who plays baby's mother was the choreographer. The actress who was going to play the mom had to pull out at the last minute.
The great Jerry Orbach plays the dad. Sings like an angel. Best detective on Law and Order.
Not forgetting the voice of Lumiere from Beauty and the Beast.
He did the voice for Lumiere in the Disney’s animated Beauty and the Beast.
@@slytheringingerwitch Yes I had forgotten that. Thanks for the reminders!
"What's the merengue, isn't that a pie?"
Greatest comment I've heard today! 😆
The way your face lights up when the "nobody puts baby in the corner" line happens is one of the best reaction moment I've seen so far in any reaction 💯😆
Now you understand why everyone loves Dirty Dancing. Always there to give you that feel good pick up when you need it. ❤
Good lord, given Cassie's movie preferences before she even started this channel, I'm amazed she hasn't already seen this. It's hard to imagine anything more up her alley.
Exactly! This movue was literally made for Cassie. Was sure sge must have seen it already.
Surely she will get Carly to watch it, if she hasn't already
That was my first thought.
@@danieljohnson2005 LOL
Ya, this is Cassies type of movie. Very surprised its a first time viewing.
Patrick Swayze's mother was a dance instructor and he grew up dancing in competitions. The acting came later. Apparently he was fantastic at both. This movie is absolutely timeless. Still brings tears to my eyes. "Nobody puts baby in the corner."
agent coulson did!
The dad (Jerry Orbach) starred in Law & Order & Baby (Jennifer Grey) was the sister in Ferris Bueller's Day Off. I was 16 when this came out in 1987, five years before Seinfeld. Great reaction as always!
Right at the beginning when Cassie was talking about Dancing - she was thinking 80's dancing because the movie came out in 1987. But if you remember Baby's voice over narration back at the beginning, she mentioned something about before kennedy was shot, (which was in Nov 1963), but she did not mention the Cuban Missile crisis (which was in 1962) so this movie had to have been set in the summer of 63 - July & August of 1963 - pretty much exactly 1 year before I was born.
I feel so bad for Penny. She’s a good person who got a bad lot.
That wig scene where she acts rude…
_“I envy you,”_ said some spoiled rich girl with a perfect life after she’s just been told how her father left the family and her mother kicked her out as a teen. Penny’s reaction is justified.
Maybe one day you will be wise enough to consider you shouldn't judge every book by its cover and every picture painted is an interpretation of what it means to you.
@@froggy187888 well a picture is worth a thousand words, a few of them could be misleading.
@@geeebuttersnap2433 A book with a thousand words is 1inch thick. About as deep as a puddle trying to explain one's existence.
Now this is a movie I can’t believe you’ve never seen. It’s literally everything you love about movies.
Yes, and her setting a 1990 cutoff is bizarre. She must have heard loads of fans of this film saying it's their favourite.
I agree, most of these so called 'first time watching or hearing' is made up. Its all to generate views so they earn money. You must live on another planet to avoid seeing or hearing some of the most popular films and songs in the world haha!
@@tonymantle9734 I don't think that's true. I'm 41 and work a job that has me talking to a lot of people in their 20s and 30s. I talk movies all of the time, and I'm stunned by how illiterate people are these days when it comes to movies that were made more than twenty years ago. My girlfriend is 29 and didn't know shit about classic cinema when we first started dating around five years ago. She hadn't seen The Matrix, The Terminator, The Karate Kid ... the list goes on and on.
@@ThePoorBoy Yep, so many people are oblivious to the past.
I mean I'm 33 and never seen an Indiana Jones or Rocky movie. I was sheltered lol
Jennifer Grey has a dancing pedigree. She's dancing "royalty". Her father Joel Grey was in some really great movies. Check out Cabaret...it stars Liza Minelli, and Joel Grey did a great job as the m.c.
Joel Grey is a Broadway legend.
"I need to learn to dance"... That´s what I did...and, for some period, I was an intructor. This movie really has this incredible effect
Fun Fact: Jerry Orbach, who plays the Dad; voiced Lumiere in the Disney animated "Beauty and the Beast" and sang "Be Our Guest"!
I will always remember him as Detective Lennie Briscoe from Law and Order. He played that role for 12 years.
Tony winner as well.
He voiced Lumiere!!!! I never knew that. Wow
I laughed my ass off at, "I thought she was going for a prenatal check up"! So innocent.
Edit: didn't mean any disrespect to Cassie. Just thought it was so cute and funny
Naïve
@@asperhes - I believe that! I remember when I saw it thinking- does that mean she wants an abortion?! Or maybe it is just to start up with an OB doc. For some reason it just kind of shocked me that abortion was what they were talking about and Baby was so willing to help. I was young and naive for sure! I was a little too young to understand Penny’s character had to do what was best for her.
“What’s a merengue ? Isn’t that like a pie ?”
Omg I almost died. 😂
First time I saw this, I thought the same thing. Granted, I was 12, but still. They never actually use the word abortion at any point.
I love how this iconic "nobody puts Baby in a corner" line is about a character actually named Baby being sat in a literal corner. Lol
Patrick was a dancer for years before hoping into movies. He's done all kinds, even ballet. His wife, Lisa Neimi was a ballet dancer. They were both incredible.
The whole time while you were watching I thought "How has she not seen this movie?! It is perfect for her!" Glad you kinda liked it. 😄
Lol was so thinking the exact same thing 💯
Kinda? She loved it! 😍
The part at the end when everyone is following Johnny's moves was incredible
i still cant do that move. 😭😭😭
Clutching your invisible pearls: 'She's gonna make 2 first moves? I'm so proud of her'
OMG! Your commentary is everything!! 🤣🤣😭
Jennifer Gray was on DWTS and they did a tribute to Patrick Swayze. Patricks mother taught him to dance, she owned a dance studio.
This has to be one of my favourite reactions. When everyone around me seems fed up and jaded, your reactions to this were so filled with joy that my spirits were lifted more than I would have expected.
What is so amazing is that they had that incredible chemistry despite not getting along. Swayze was apparently very upset that Jennifer Gray wasn't taking the dancing seriously enough. It just shows that great acting and chemistry can overcome a lot. Also, the supporting cast should not be ignored. Jerry Orbach was a national treasure. These camps definitely did exist in the Catskills and Poconos. My mother was a waitress at one for the summer when she was about 16. And I never really realized it but both of Baby's parents were played by Tony award winners for musicals and they don't even sing or dance here.
I think those takes where she breaks down laughing and he looks annoyed are real, not acted.
Those trips to the Catskills feature a lot in "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" too..
You called him a Jerkhead! You're vicious!
He was Patrick Swayze! "Did he know this before the movie?" Yes, he can sing, he can dance, he can fight, he can surf, he can sky dive... The list is endless. The world is a lesser place now that he's gone.
Yes! I love this movie. Classic Swayze. :D Would also suggest "Ghost". It's my all time favourite movie
Yes, Cassie needs to see “Ghost”.
And Roadhouse and Reds and Next of Kin and... Anything Swayze is gonna be good.
Patrick Swayze is singing the song "She's like the Wind," playing in the scene where Johnny leaves and says goodbye to Baby. Super talented man. RIP
Have you seen the video of him & his wife dancing to that? Beautiful 🥰
Cassie continuing to sample the drink she hates is such a mood
Swayze grew up doing ballet, he always kept dancing, then trained in martial arts, and eventually became an actor. He really was a triple threat.
Patric Swayze died of Pancreatic cancer at the age of 58. This is how we remember him. Johnny Castle. Jennifer Gray did a dance tribute to him at an awards show maybe 10 years ago and it was stunning. Patric's Dad was an early T.V. personality. John Cameron Swayze. He died of the same thing years earlier. Jennifer Gray is the Daughter of Joel Gray who was the Master of Ceremonies to Liza Minnelli's Staring role in Cabaret...They were both 2nd Generation show biz. They had acted together in one other movie, (Red Dawn) But this is the only one where they were paired up. It was fun watching you see this for the first time. Thank you.
Patrick Wayne Swayze, and unfortunately he was only 57 when he passed. His diagnosis was less than 2 years prior.
First saw him in The Outsiders, a great film which introduced much of the 80s/90s Hollywood young male stars.
There's a memorial for Patrick at Mountain Lake Hotel where Dirty Dancing was shot.
RIP Patrick.
When I was in college, at University of Maryland, I was in a Fraternity, Kappa Alpha Order (KA). We had Greek Week (or it could have been Homecoming week) and there was a Dance contest in front of the whole Greek society, Fraternities and Sororities. We were doing the week with the Delta Gammas (DG) and I was selected to be the dancer for KA (I was the only one in the house who knew how to), to dance with the DG girl. Michelle was a Dance Major, so I was in good hands, as far as instruction. She wanted to do the routine from the Dirty Dancing movie, to the "Time of Your Life" song. We worked on it for a couple weeks and we went up and danced the routine in front of 3000 students, at Ritchie Coliseum! We won 1st place! Huge trophy (DG kept it at their house) and a ton of fun. I don't remember that much -- we were dressed in nautical attire, like a Sailor and Sailorette (DG has a nautical theme, nationally). Michelle did the leap and I caught her and lifted her up, I remember that. I was so freaking nervous, but we did it!
When Johnny is leaving, after being let go, and he says goodbye to Baby, the song that's playing, 'She's Like the Wind', is co-written and sung by Patrick Swayze.
Top two reaction moments I've seen on this channel: Rocky II "win" and "the lift" in Dirty Dancing.
One of your funniest lines ever: "did she just make two first moves in a row? I'm so proud of her."
If you like this movie, you should check out the sequel. Johnny has to find a new summer job at a bar. It's called "Roadhouse."
😂😉
Too funny for words.
Roadhouse has B movie bad written all over it, but somehow it worked. Got a little too dark at the end though
'Be nice'
You win!
You're really killing it with getting me emotional. This was my mom's favorite movie. She used to make us watch it as kids. She always watched the end about 30 times. As a kid, it was annoying but looking back on it as an adult, it is very endearing and reflected her personality. I miss her so much. Watching this reaction conjured up some fond memories.
Same thing with my late mom, she watched Dirty Dancing dozens of times. She was a dancer herself when she was younger. She wouldn't miss an episode of DWTS either.
"I carried a watermelon" is the quote of my life. I want it on my grave ....I love this movie.
"Isn't that a pie?" LOL... classic
Thank you. This was my mother's favorite movie. She was absolutely in love with Patrick Swayze. Today is literally the anniversary of her passing. We lost her 33 years ago today. This was the perfect thing for me to watch today. I'm glad you loved it.
i thought i was reading about my own mum for a second there, she's the same way. sorry to hear of your mother's passing, but glad you found a little bit comfort in this reaction.
@@-gohu- Thank you. Patrick Swayze and Tom Selleck were my mom's loves. I have this movie memorized, because she watched it so much, and I haven't watched it since the 80s.
@@jkhooverdirty dancing is one of my favourite movies as a gay man
The emotions on your face on the last dance is so PERFECT. It shows how engaged you were with the movie and how it created this vortex of emotions in you that you related to it. Think about seeing this movie when you were a teenager, this movie was one of the most iconic ones in the cinemas when i was a teenager and it was such an amazing movie at the time. Its amazing how the story crosses generation boundaries with such a of beautiful acting from the late Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Gray. I'm very happy to see it managed to move and touch you as well.
I was 15 when then this movie came out. I was visiting my paternal grandmother (who was 74 when this came out) one time and we watched this on cable and from that moment forth anytime this was on cable, she watched it.
The fact of seeing a reaction video in which a woman sees Dirty Dancing for the first time is almost as good as the film itself. I've seen the film at least 4 times, but it's been a long time. After this video, well.... I think I know what I'm watching tonight...
I had an econ professor in college who described Dirty Dancing as "a tragic movie about an intelligent young woman who was going to have a bright future in economics before being seduced into debauchery by Patrick Swayze."
Hahahaha omg they arnt wrong I suppose
Only a miserable cynic sees love as a problem 😂😂
I watched this in 1987 when it came out. I was 12 years old. Everyone in my class saw it. We all wanted to dance. Patrick Swayze made it cool for guys to dance ! Great movie! More happy endings for you!!
Same with me. 😎
Um, this is disrespectful to Kevin Bacon. 😛
@@raelshark I understand. But when footloose came out I was 9. I wasn't into the chics. At 12 yrs though I was and I wanted to dance.
But later in life the Footloose song was the jam and still is going strong. We have an 80s bar in my hometown and footloose always brings them out. Cheers to our totally awesome 80s jams
@Kristopher Chavez I totally jam to footloose it's fantastic! But when I was 9 years old when the movie came out I wasn't into it. But like brushless sprouts the song grew on me later in life. I'd say in Jr high.....circa 1988. I have loved that song since 1988. Love it! Dance and sing to it. I think I even wrote that on my last post. I explained that I didn't like it at 9 years old in 1984. But there are people out there that probably don't like the song. I think they are missing out. But to each thier own. Be kind to everyone.
I love my 80s music
@@bovie0000i was 6 in 1997 when i first seen dirty dancing. I should have realized i was gay with Johnny in the cry to me scene
When you watch a movie for the 50th time, but the first time with Cassie and it feels like the first time all over again.
"Grindin' and bumpin'". Cracked me up right out of the gate. We all know that famous R. Kelly song, "I don't see nothing wrong, with a little grind and bump"...LOL
When this movie first came to cable, there was a video that aired about the making of the film. In it, Jennifer Grey revealed that her laughing at the 14:27 mark, as Swayze ran his hand down her arm, was genuine. And that the frustration on Patrick Swayze's face was genuine as well. As Grey put it, "I'm sorry, but I am ticklish."
Jennifer Grey was the 2010 Winner of Dancing with the Stars. Patrick Swayze was a trained dancer.
I literally cried with joy at the end to see you so happy for those two.
"What's the MERENGUE? Isn't that a PIE!?" OMFG ily
Wow, I am so surprised this was one of the "not seen" films, since you had said you liked "chick flicks!" I thought you responded so positively to some of the more intimate scenes that I am thinking you should also be sure to watch Ghost (1990), starring Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, and Whoopi Goldberg. Like Dirty Dancing it also became quite iconic, mostly due to some of the intensely romantic (and sad) scenes.
I think Ghost became iconic due to the comedy and mystery as well. It was actually the highest grossing film of 1990. Many guys avoid it due to the assumption that it's just a chick flick, but it's really not.
@@jp3813 *Ghost* was a suspenseful romantic comedy fantasy thriller. It had wide appeal. That is why it was a blockbuster smash. Yes, it's a shame that nowadays it is remembered as a 'chick flick.'
If you want to see them both together for the first time in a VERY different setting watch RED DAWN, the 1984 version. A great film with a great cast that you will recognise.
Just the other day I was thinking that she needs to see Red Dawn. Love that movie.
Yup.
As a kid that grew up in the Cold War of the '80s, that movie's opening scene scared the crap out of me.
Jerry Orbach is a legend.
OK, I didn't realize that so many man watched and liked Dirt Dancing, I'm so happy to see a lot of guy saying that they love this movie, it's my favorite movie, I seen it at least 30 times.
So glad you loved it! It is such a classic. Nobody puts Baby in a corner....
There were two popular films that Jennifer Grey acted in prior to "Dirty Dancing" (1987).
One was "Red Dawn" (1984) an action-drama-thriller with Patrick Swayze. In the west mountains of America, a group of teenagers band together to defend their town, and their country, from invading Soviet forces.
The other film was "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" (1986) staring Matthew Broaderick with Grey as his sister. It is a comedy of a high school wise guy determined to have a day off from school. Highly rated and recommended.
Another notable film with Swayze is "Ghost" (1990) a drama-fantasy-romance. After a young man is murdered, his spirit stays behind to warn his lover (Demi Moore) of impending danger, with the help of a reluctant psychic (Whoopi Goldberg). Again, highly rated and recommended.
Yes! Cassie neeeeeeds to watch Ghost! :)
I like Jennifer Grey also in the film: Wind (1992), directed by Carroll Ballard, and starring also Matthew Modine and Cliff Robertson.
Even though "Wind" is not a very good movie, I still really like it, and it's one of the few movies about sailing racing.
Jennifer Grey then got a nose job and stopped getting much work.
Ferris Buhler's Day Off (1986) was one of the biggest movies she's been in. She had a small but pivotal role.
She's also the daughter of Tony-winning musical actor Joel Grey.
Mom and Dad (Jerry Orbach and Kelly Bishop) were both Tony winners as well, she for A Chorus Line and he for Promises, Promises!
Another A-M-A-Z-I-N-G reaction from Cassie! Please add FOOTLOOSE to your long list of movies to see : )
Flash dance, she has to see it.
Yes, the one from 1984, not the rip-off remake from 2011
was thinking the same thing!! Footloose Flashdance and Top Gun before 2 comes out! All with great soundtracks as this movie!!
this was such a great reaction, and yes they did have amazing chemistry. funny fact, at the beginning of filming they didn't get along at first. they were both in a movie together called Red Dawn before and rubbed eachother the wrong way so they went in having beef and then ended up becoming really great friends during the filming of this movie and stayed life long friends after. also, Patrick Swayze sang the song "She's Like The Wind" in this, and actually wrote it as well with his friend.
The song that’s playing when he drives off in his car is Patrick Swayzing singing. He was a dancer actor martial arts fighter stunt man and singer but the best part is that he was good at every single one of them. Multi talented
I’m sure it’s been mentioned but fun fact: Jennifer Grey got a nose job and completely changed how she looked. She had trouble finding movies after because no one recognized her. Little lesson to just be yourself. We are all beautiful just the way we are
True.. But it was to correct a deviated septum. Sad that it made her unrecognizable though.
Fun fact: in the scene where "Johnny" (Patrick Swayze) is leaving in his car, the song playing called "She's Like The Wind" is sung by .....Patrick Swayze.
And Swayze was a dancer in real life along with being an actor and a singer. So, these moves in this film were just second nature to him.
He was/trained to be a professional dancer. An knee injury put an end to that.
This was made in "87" but was set in the "60's. By the way, we dirty danced in the " 80's pretty dirty! It was the 80's, not the 40's! We had more freedom, and fun than any kids since! As a matter of fact, a lot of things we did then would be considered evil in today's goody goody world!
This movie was a very low budget movie that was intended for direct-to-VHS but they realised it was so good that they tried it in theaters...and they completely blew the box office. One of the greatest hits of 1987. Another good topic is that thel last song (The Time of My Life) was sung by Jennifer Warnes and Bill Medley. Bill Medley is half of The Righteous Brothers, their version of Unchained Melody is the main theme in the movie Ghost...also starring Patrick Swayze.
And regardless their great chemistry on screen...Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey hated each other. They met in a previous movie (Red Dawn). When she knew Patrick was on Dirty Dancing she wanted to quit.
