Dirty Dancing

In the organizer's words:

Francis "Baby" Houseman (Jennifer Grey) is a girl from a rich family. She and her family spend their summer vacation in 1963 at Max Kellerman's (Jack Weston) hotel, where Baby meets the dashing dance instructor Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze) - his show makes her want to dance too. But the mambo god has no love for spoiled upper-class girls. But then his dance partner Penny (Cynthia Rhodes) drops out due to an unwanted pregnancy and Baby offers her help. Now she is to learn the complicated figures of the mambo on the fly. The couple quickly become emotionally close, but have to overcome various problems along the way: a series of thefts and the golden hotel rule that staff and guests must remain separated by an invisible line cause problems for Baby and Johnny...
