I've had the time of my life...and I owe it all to you!

Hungry Eyes, Do ya love me, Love is strange...these were the songs that I listened to over and over again on a cassette in my little purple Casio boombox from Service Merchandise back when I was a kid in the 80s. I was a fat kid--very unpopular. I had crushes on boys, but they never liked me back.

It was the summer of my seventh birthday. Dirty Dancing came out in theaters. My mom took my to see it and my life would never be the same. When it came out on VHS, I spent almost every night of the summer watching Johnny Castle---dreaming of the day when I'd find a leather jacket wearing, sensitive badboy of my own. I finally got my wish and tonight, my life will reach its pinnacle--I'm going to see Dirty Dancing at a movie theater with my very own Johnny Castle.

If you want to have the time of your life too, the original Dirty Dancing is celebrating its 20th Anniversary by returning to the big screen tonight and tomorrow night only at 7:30pm local. Don't miss the original full-length movie PLUS exclusive never-before-seen footage and interviews with cast members and stakeholders that have kept the energy of Dirty Dancing alive for 20 years - seen only at this two night event! Check out Fathomevents.com for a theater that's showing it near you. If you can't find it there, try Fandango.com.
