coming of age story
This is a coming of age story of naive Baby who comes with her family to a wealthy resort and falls in love with Johnny, the popular dance teacher. This is the summer that Baby grows up and falls in love. I really liked it, the "dirty dancing" wasn't that dirty, and it was pretty clean for the most part.There were only a few instances where I can think that it was suggestive, otherwise it isn't too bad. There is also a gross scene where someone had a botched abortion and is suffering from the pain. Nothing gory but a young woman called Penny goes to get an abortion and its a botched one. She's seen laying on the bed groaning from the pain and some of the sheets are bloody, thankfully Baby gets her dad who's a doctor and he takes care of Penny and yes she lives.Its disturbing, don't let young kids or young teens watch this movie. I don't get why they wanted to put this scene in unless its to show viewers the dangers of abortion. Johnny and Baby teach each other about life and love. I'm not sure if I liked this movie, I'm turned off by the abortion scene. I mean ugh, its so sad. The movie has a good plot and the whole cast did a wonderful job. There are lots of features in this movie so if you're a huge fan of the movie then I'd suggest that you get this dvd.
