Synopsis
Dirty Dancing (1987) is a romance drama from Vestron Pictures — watch it online on iFILM. Director Emile Ardolino cast Jennifer Grey as Frances "Baby" Houseman and Patrick Swayze as dance instructor Johnny Castle in a film that won the Academy Award for Best Original Song for "(I've Had) The Time of My Life."
Summer 1963, a resort hotel in the Catskill Mountains. Baby arrives for a family vacation expecting nothing. Then she wanders into a late-night staff party and hears the music. When Johnny's partner Penny (Cynthia Rhodes) can't perform at the season's showcase event, he reluctantly asks Baby to fill in. She has two weeks to learn. Her father Dr. Houseman — Jerry Orbach — has no idea, and there is zero chance he would approve. Every rehearsal in that cramped cabin pushes the two closer to something neither planned for.
Made for six million dollars, the film grossed over 214 million worldwide and became one of the most profitable independent productions of the 1980s. The climactic lift and the line "Nobody puts Baby in a corner" have passed into common speech. Stream Dirty Dancing (1987) online on iFILM.
