This episode of Videoblivious dives into 1987's "Dirty Dancing" -- a coming-of-age film about dancing, forbidden love, abortions, and -- apparently -- the early-1960s Democratic Party. (Who knew?)
Award-winning journalist and "Jeopardy!" Champion J.R. Lind knew... He's my guest this week to discuss a movie he's seen "scores of times"; one that I saw for the very first time approximately three hours before recording this episode.
"Dirty Dancing" is not currently available on any streaming platform, with the exception of Paramount+ (but only when subscribed through Apple TV). You can find a DVD copy at your local library, or rent/buy a digital copy from various online media companies.
Enjoy the episode, and please rate, like, and subscribe!
