Another summer romance completes our picks for summer movies this week. In this dance movie classic that became a cultural phenomenon in 1987, Jennifer Grey (who was 27 but looked 12) stars as the teenage Baby, who travels to the Catskills with her family in the summer of 1963, and falls in with the crowd of dancers who work as the hired help and occasionally sleep with the stuffy rich guests who spend their vacations there. She meets the sexy, older Johnny, (real life dancer Patrick Swayze), who teaches her how to move...in all kinds of ways. A swoony summer fling ensues (set to a classic '80's soundtrack) and an all time guilty pleasure was born. It's the perfect cap to our week of summer time flicks, so maybe collect all five and do a binge over the weekend, or sometime before the summer's out. It'll be worth it.
