Deffinetly worth owning!
'Dirty Dancing' takes place in 1963 where Frances "Baby" Houseman (Jennifer Grey) goes to Kellerman's with her family for the summer. While she is there she meets the handsome dance instructor Johnny Castle (Patrick Swayze) while going for a walk one evening. When she discovers that Johnny's dance partner, Penny, is in need of an abortion and she can only have it if they can possibly find someone to fill in for her during a performance, Baby volunteers and she falls in love with the mysterious dancer, and she teaches him that there actually are people in this world who will stand up for other people and that the badness in life can be worked out.The DVD verison of this is amazing. The picture is very clear and it is widescreen so it is able to fit the new widescreen TV's. The sound is also very crisp and clear. The bonus features include: interviews; commentaries; a screen-test of Jennifer Grey; behind-the-scenes featurette; a theatrical trailer; music videos of "(I've Had) The Time of My Life", "Hungry Eyes", and "She's Like The Wind; biographies of the cast and crew; a trivia track; an Emile Ardolino tribute; and a sneak peak of the upcoming 'Dirty Dancing - Havana Nights'. The only thing that is odd about the Bonus material is that they have interviews and stuff on Jennifer Grey, but non on Patrick Swayze.This movie is great and the music is absolutly phenominal. If you love 'Dirty Dancing' I strongly suggest you get this DVD, because this is the best I've seen it viewed!
