DramaRomance100 min
On a family summer trip to a Catskills resort in 1963, 17-year-old Frances “Baby” Houseman finds an unexpected world behind the hotel’s polished routines. Jennifer Grey is Baby, a sheltered teenager who gets pulled into the staff’s after-hours dance scene and steps in as a partner when one of the performers is sidelined. Patrick Swayze’s Johnny Castle, the resort’s dance instructor, becomes her teacher and then something more, as class divisions, family expectations, and a crisis involving another dancer begin to press in.
