Dirty Dancing Turns 30 Years Old!!!

It’s been exactly 30 years since Johnny and Baby had ‘the time of their life’ BUT ‘Dirty Dancing’ still remains one of the most popular films of our time and it turns 30 years old!!!

The movie opened on Aug. 21, 1987 and has since been a movie favourite.  The original Dirty Dancing was one of the summer’s biggest surprises.  It was filmed on a budget of $6 million and it ended up earning over $213 million at the box office, not to mention its two remakes.

The movie was filmed between two different locations, Lake Lure in North Carolina and the Mountain Lodge in Giles County, VA.

And after 30 years, who could forget the most memorable lines from the movie:

“Nobody puts Baby in a corner.” —Johnny

“You just put your pickle on everybody’s plate, college boy, and leave the hard stuff to me.” — Johnny

“Sorry for the disruption, folks, but I always do the last dance of the season.  This year somebody told me not to.  So i’m gonna do my kind of dancin’ with a great partner, who’s not only a terrific dancer, but somebody … who’s taught me … that there are people willing to stand up for other people no mater what it costs them.  Somebody who’s taught me about the kind of person I wanna be.  Miss. Frances Houseman.” — Johnny

“Look, spaghetti arms. This is my dance space. This is your dance space. I don’t go into yours, you don’t go into mine. You gotta hold the frame.” — Johnny

“We’re supposed to do the show in two days, you won’t show me the lifts, I’m not sure of the turns, I’m doing all this to save your ass, what I really want to do is drop you on it!” — Baby

“Me? I’m scared of everything. I’m scared of what I saw, I’m scared of what I did, of who I am, and most of all I’m scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I’m with you.” — Baby
