A Few Thoughts on "Dirty Dancing"

It's on right now; late at night, as I sit here posting.

Jennifer Grey should never have gotten her nose done.

Penny (Cynthia Rhodes) is pretty short with Baby when they first chat at the "wig station". What a bitch, right?

I am tempted to add Patrick Swayze to my Stew of Sin (patent pending), but only for this role. I must say, he's pretty hot. My mom is in love w/ this movie and him in it. I can recall sitting around watching this w/ her and her swooning over him. As a young adolescent; with my closet door shut tight, I wanted so desperately to say to her; "I know Mom. He IS hot!"

This is one of those movies that always made me want to learn to dance. You know the other biggie; that inspired my toes to want to tap? God forgive me, Showgirls.

You know what? I DO love this movie. The other half can't stand it, so he groans each time I might be flipping channels and want to watch it; even for a brief moment. So, I think his ill will toward this film has sadly rubbed off on me. I have a tendency to unwillingly grow tired of certain things that he finds boring or stupid. I guess that comes with this much time together.

I used to have an "eye routine" to the song "Hungry Eyes". I prefer not to explain this. Haven't I embarrassed myself enough?

I have to admit; the first love scene between Johnny and Baby is pretty hot. I can still hear that song, "Cry to Me" and get a bit turned on.

I haven't watched this in awhile, so I wonder if I would still get goosebumps in the final "lift" moment. I bet I would. Just don't let the other half see that. Harumph!
