Dirty Dancing was a huge hit when it came out. Everyone remembers the fun and the dancing. It also has a botched back-alley abortion, a 25-year-old male prostitute dancing with a 17-year-old, and a dad who was completely right the whole time. Bridget rewatches the 1987 classic and breaks down why the movie is genuinely insane, why nobody noticed because there was dancing, and why the only reason it became legendary is that the Lift at the end made everyone forget everything else. Nobody remembers the abortion.
