Hello, and action.

Hello, dear listeners, and welcome back to another episode of What Went Wrong,

your favorite podcast, Full Stop, that just so happens to be about movies

and how it's nearly impossible to make them, let alone a good one,

let alone a surprisingly layered look at class differences by way of the celebration of dance.

As always, I am Chris Winterbauer, and I am joined this week by Lizzie Bassett, who is not entirely

back from maternity leave, but through the power of time travel, namely recording ahead of time.

We get her this week. Lizzie, how you doing tonight? I'm doing, Chris,

excuse me, I am having the time of my life. There you go. Thank you. Took me a while to get there.

We are covering, honestly, what I think I didn't realize is maybe one of my favorite movies,

which is Dirty Dancing. Wow. I don't know. I love it. I love it so much. And a lot more

struck me about this movie this time around versus the, you know, many, many times that I watched

this as a kid and as a teenager. I am assuming, Chris, that you have seen this before. What's your

memory of it and what was your reaction this time? I had seen it a number of times

in high school. It was always a film. If you had kind of a co-ed friend group, I feel like it was the

film that like the girls had on when you went to the girls' house. And so I saw it in the background

in the same way that when they came over, like, you know, die hard was on TNT or something. Weirdly, that was not my experience at our co-ed movie nights, but they always put on

Pulp Fiction or the Rules of Attraction.

You had a more interesting friend group than I did.

But then, yeah, I hadn't seen it since high school.

And I similarly, I liked it fine in high school.

I didn't think a ton of it.
