A revisit to the 80s classic! Dirty Dancing tells the story of the sheltered upper-class girl Baby, who discovers dance - and gains independence and sexual freedom - during a two-week summer vacation with her family. The story is a classic melodrama, set against the backdrop of the late 1960s, and reflects broader social changes through its dancing, loving protagonists, who expose the double standards and constraints of bourgeois society. The film can also be seen as a feminist tribute to female sexuality and to the man as object. The camera’s lingering focus on Patrick Swayze - his dancing body and bare torso - firmly establishes the reality of the female gaze.
