Fantastic film with great music and characterization

Rating: 10/10 (5 July 2018)

I love this movie. It's cute, fun, romantic, good-hearted, funny, and overall a great film. Jennifer Grey is incredibly adorable in the weirdest way possible and her character as an endlessly motivated do-gooder is New York perfect character. Unlike Grease or other films, she doesn't change into the bag girl and get the guy by giving up her true identity. Rather, she fights for what's right, accepts tough changes, comes clean with her father, and tastes a bit of the wild side from secretly dancing, romancing, and... well taking her father's money for abortion without his knowing (and not her abortion). If anything she changes for the better as she breaks out of her shell, lives more, and stays true to herself and her character.
Also, the dancing and music in this film are incredible. I love the time period, the atmosphere, the soundtrack, and everything about this film. I'd love to revisit it just to relive it and be part of its world again.
