Dirty Dancing

In the summer of 1963, Frances "Baby" Houseman is vacationing with her parents Jake and Marjorie Houseman, and her older sister Lisa at Kellerman's, an upscale Catskills resort in the Borscht Belt owned by Jake's sarcastic best friend Max. Exploring one night, Baby secretly observes Max instructing the waiters, all Ivy League students, to romance the guests' daughters, no matter how unattractive. Max also demeans the working class entertainment staff, including Johnny Castle, one of the dance instructors. Baby is attracted to Johnny, and dances briefly with him after his kind hearted cousin, Billy, introduces them at a secret "dirty dancing" party for resort staff. Max's smart aleck grandson Neil flirts with Baby in the meantime.
