The Dryden will screen Dirty Dancing (Emile Ardolino, U.S. 1987, 100 min., 35mm) as part of the Dirty Dancing series.

It's the end of summer—but there's still the end-of-season talent show. Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey play the star-crossed young lovers who meet at an Upstate summertime resort—he's the dance instructor and she's the Peace Corps-bound debutante. Their forbidden love is channeled through their forbidden dance, and they will change each other's lives forever. Baby's been put in a corner, and we don't know if she'll ever reunite with Johnny, no matter how many lessons he's given her.
