GTGC #274 Dirty Dancing

Our lives keep changing as the summer progresses. That's right, our Growing up in Summer marathon continues this week with the 80s classic, Dirty Dancing—which takes place in the summer of '63. Dirty Dancing offers quite a few differences to Stand by Me. It's never as nostalgic, it features a strong female lead who comes from money. While class is a part of Stand by Me, it drives the narrative of Dirty Dancing.
