DIRTY DANCING LOCATION VIRGINIA MOVIE

(As an aside, could you imagine the handwringing that would occur if a movie called Dirty Dancing were to be popular among teens nowadays?)ĭirty Dancing was set in the Catskills (holla!), and recalled a more innocent America than even that of the 1980's, which seems similarly innocent through a 2012 lens. The film was a big sleeper hit, resonating with audiences across America and becoming the first movie ever to sell more than a million copies on VHS. One of the biggest films of the 80's was Dirty Dancing, catapulting the now-deceased Patrick Swayze to superstar status and making a name for co-star Jennifer Gray, who played the sheltered character Baby to Swayze's Johnny. ''Dirty Dancing' is such an important part of Virginia's cinematic history, and we can't wait for folks to rediscover the timeless allure that Virginia and Mountain Lake Lodge hold with 'The Real Dirty Dancing,'' concluded Andy Edmunds, Director of the Virginia Film Office.If seeing it was on your bucket list, the Dirty Dancing hotel fire may have put a kibosh on your ability to tick off all your boxes.
