Movie Review: Celebrating 30 Years of Dirty Dancing
“It’s nothing, Marjorie, go back to sleep.” As I watched Dirty Dancing for the first time in several years, this seemingly throwaway line from Jerry Orbach to Kelly Bishop, as the parents of Jennifer Grey’s Frances “Baby” Houseman, struck me. Orbach's Jake, a wealthy doctor, has just returned to his bungalow at this Catskills Hotel after having given treatment to Cynthia Rhodes’ Penny who has just undergone what at the time was referred to as a back-alley abortion. This was after she’d been knocked up by Robbie, a selfish snob doing time to raise money he doesn’t need for his Ivy League education.

Opposites Attract
can't you see the bleeding love I have for you, why you gotta be so mean to me, why you don't know what you mean to me, why you got other women rolling their eyes at me, I know I overthink things, but that's only because I don't want our love to be imaginary, you're the only one that I want, no matter who comes in my life, my heart keeps running back to you, your name echoes in my head, I miss the days, where we layed in bed, sharing dreams and passions, no matter what you put up with me better than any man has, my past love has damaged me upon repair, but somehow you fixed everything with a gentle kiss and the sweet nothings you whispered to me, all I ask is understand my feelings for you and hopefully one day we can be merry as if all our problems were imaginary
