Dirty Dancing
Dirty Dancing is a feel good movie that never fails to bring on smiles and feelings of delight. It’s the theatrical movie that set Patrick Swayze’s stardom on fire and gave us the line, “No one puts Baby in a corner”.

SiCKO

MacArthur film
I can’t think of general Douglas MacArthur without thinking of Gregory Peck and the 1977 film MacArthur is the reason.
