ABC finally released some photos from the much anticipated Dirty Dancing remake and do you think you will have the time of your life watching it on May 24th?
The telemovie that stars Abigail Breslin and Colt Prattes as the roles that were originated by Jennifer Grey and the late Patrick Swayze seems to have captured some of the original 1987 film’s feel, but I still don’t think it needed to be remade. There was just something about it that made it feel special on its own, I don’t see why it needs to be retold.
Especially, since it was the chemistry between Swayaze and Grey that made it what it was. Now that he is no longer with us, I don’t think anyone will be able to recreate it. It is perfect just the way it is.
Will I watch? Of course, but I will be bitching about it until the credits role.
On a positive note, at least Debra Messing and Sarah Hyland truly look like they belong in the Catskills back in the ’60s.
