1987 somewhere in the catskills Frances Baby Houseman is pouting during her last dinner at the Kellerman resort. Here comes Johnny Castle to proclaim "Nobody puts baby in a corner" they proceed to dance to this wildly hit tune and in the end the poor guy gets the rich girl. During all of this my nephew is cracking up at the intensity of Johnny Castle's facial expressions. Being that I've seen this movie probably 20 times I never realized how funny it was. I mean seriously Johhny get over yourself, it's just dancing. Next time you happen to catch this movie on tbs watch his face when he dances alone in the last act. 

I explained to my 15 year old nephew that he was witnessing a pop culture phenomenon and that this movie "Dirty Dancing" (in case you hadn't guessed it yet) was a huge hit in the 80's. Although after 20 years the movie seems like a cheese festival it still teaches a good lesson, to never judge a book by it's cover. Patrick Swayze may have looked like a hoodlum but he sure can move like the dirty dancing fool that he is!
