It's the summer of 1963, and the Housman family is gearing up for yet another dull summer in the Catskills. For Baby, the youngest member of the Housman clan, it's just another detour on the way to college and the Peace Corps. But from the first night Baby lays eyes on her dance instructor, the magnificent Johnny Castle, it's clear that this year is going to be different. With a great retro soundtrack and some of the most iconic scenes of the eighties, not to mention the godlike physique of Patrick Swayze, Dirty Dancing is a nostalgia powerhouse.
