Broken Hearts Club: Dirty Dancing
🗓 Wednesday, August 26 | ⏰ Doors: 6PM | 🎬 Film: 8PM | 📍 TicTic, Phnom Penh
We close out Broken Hearts Club on a warmer note with Dirty Dancing, the story of Frances "Baby" Houseman, a sheltered teenager who falls for Johnny Castle, the resort's working-class dance instructor, while on a family holiday in the Catskills in the summer of 1963. Starring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey, it's a summer romance built on class tension, stolen dance lessons, and the kind of chemistry that turns a small, low-budget film into a phenomenon.
Made for just $6 million and initially expected to flop, Dirty Dancing went on to gross over $200 million worldwide and become one of the best-selling home video releases of all time. Its soundtrack, anchored by the Oscar-winning "(I've Had) The Time of My Life," sold over 30 million copies, and in 2024 the film was added to the U.S. National Film Registry as culturally, historically and aesthetically significant.
"A metaphor for America in the summer of 1963." — The New York Times
