See the deleted sequence between Swayze and Grey down below!
I adore this moment because it conveys so much about each character.
The 1987 romantic drama dance movie “Dirty Dancing” has gained cult status, motivating many people to take up dancing and even mimic the moves from the movie, particularly that recognizable lift.
Frances “Baby” Houseman and Johnny Castle are portrayed by Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze, respectively. It tells the story of a young woman who discovers love at a resort with a dancing instructor.
Watch the movie now if you haven’t already.
As with every movie, there are a lot of production-related mistakes and a few scenes that weren’t included in the final cut. Some of these scenes never appear on the big screen for reasons that most people are unaware of.only to be made available to consumers independently.
One such example is this cut sequence of Swayze and Grey acting as themselves, in which Johnny Castle appears to be showing Frances Houseman a few moves in preparation for their performance at the Sheldrake.
Actors who could dance were a requirement of the film’s director, Emile Ardolino.
Swayze was chosen for the job because, in comparison to other candidates, Grey and Swayze seemed to have incredible connection.
