This celebratory valentine to Patrick Swayze explores his kaleidoscopic career, from the early days on Broadway and TV to his defining roles in films such as "Dirty Dancing," "Road House," "Point Break," and "Ghost," and gives us an intimate look at the charismatic, complex man who seemed destined from birth to capture our hearts. Patrick Swayze: One Last Dance, with This celebratory valentine to Patrick Swayze explores his kaleidoscopic career, from the early days on Broadway and TV to his defining roles in films such as "Dirty Dancing," "Road House," "Point Break," and "Ghost," and gives us an intimate look at the charismatic, complex man who seemed destined from birth to capture our hearts. Patrick Swayze: One Last Dance, with never-before-heard stories including his insatiable drive for pushing the limits and his many brushes with death, his early family life and fairytale love story with his wife Lisa Niemi, and how his refusal to be typecast led him to roles that fell both in and out of favour with critics and fans alike. Surprising and fascinating details, such as the heavy tension on the set of Dirty Dancing with co-star Jennifer Grey, the inspiration behind Patrick's drag queen character Vida Boheme on To Wong Foo, and Patrick's struggle to deal with his Sexiest Man Alive status and the throngs of women who came along with it, will captivate his myriad fans. Patrick Swayze: One Last Dance is a loving portrait of a man who's mesmerized and inspired us for decades. Get A Copy. Hardcover , pages. More Details Original Title. Other Editions 8.

This book was okay, but it only contained information that the author had gotten from previous print interviews and interviews with friends of Patrick Swayze, so there was nothing here that you couldn't find elsewhere. I didn't realize that the author didn't interview Patrick until I read the Afterword of the book. The writing was choppy and disjointed due to all of the quotes and stories she copied from. I did learn a few new things about the subject, but that was only because I hadn't read This book was okay, but it only contained information that the author had gotten from previous print interviews and interviews with friends of Patrick Swayze, so there was nothing here that you couldn't find elsewhere. I did learn a few new things about the subject, but that was only because I hadn't read every single magazine and newspaper article about him. It was interesting, but like I said, not really anything new or unusual. I also found out that Patrick Swayze is now working on his own Autobiography with his wife, Lisa Niemi, and it will be out at the end of September, I already have a hold on it at my local library. May 28, Chelle rated it liked it Shelves: non-fiction. I think most of my rating has to do with the subject matter rather than the actual writing. It carried an odd tone almost as if Patrick Swayze had already died, who at the time of publication or writing this he has not. It is very informative about his training and his life however she tanks all her credibility with one key detail. Dirty Dancing is a well beloved movie, one that has been watched over and over and over. She sets the scene quite well, Johnny Castle enters Kellerman's and I think most of my rating has to do with the subject matter rather than the actual writing. Her simple mixing up of dorky, annoying, full of himself Neil for his stick in the mud grandfather colors the rest of the book. The interviews with Swayze's friends and childhood classmates do enhance the story. It's a short book, has some great pictures, and moves along quickly. I was looking for a good airplane book and it fit the bill. It also expanded my must see movie list. Nov 07, Mromigh rated it it was ok. What a disappointment. So this is all based on hearsay and gossip. It started out good but then the author just went way too far with the metaphors. Otherwise, it was nice to learn the details about Patrick's career as a dancer and his strong love for his wife. What a great guy--he will be missed. Jan 25, Kay rated it it was ok Shelves: biography. There was something lacking from this book.

  • See It Big! Action Features More Than 30 Action Movie Favorites on the Big
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ‘SEE IT BIG! ACTION’ FEATURES MORE THAN 30 ACTION MOVIE FAVORITES ON THE BIG SCREEN April 19–July 7, 2019 Astoria, New York, April 16, 2019—Museum of the Moving Image presents See It Big! Action, a major screening series featuring more than 30 action films, from April 19 through July 7, 2019. Programmed by Curator of Film Eric Hynes and Reverse Shot editors Jeff Reichert and Michael Koresky, the series opens with cinematic swashbucklers and continues with movies from around the world featuring white- knuckle chase sequences and thrilling stuntwork. It highlights work from some of the form's greatest practitioners, including John Woo, Michael Mann, Steven Spielberg, Akira Kurosawa, Kathryn Bigelow, Jackie Chan, and much more. As the curators note, “In a sense, all movies are ’action’ movies; cinema is movement and light, after all. Since nearly the very beginning, spectacle and stunt work have been essential parts of the form. There is nothing quite like watching physical feats, pulse-pounding drama, and epic confrontations on a large screen alongside other astonished moviegoers. See It Big! Action offers up some of our favorites of the genre.” In all, 32 films will be shown, many of them in 35mm prints. Among the highlights are two classic Technicolor swashbucklers, Michael Curtiz’s The Adventures of Robin Hood and Jacques Tourneur’s Anne of the Indies (April 20); Kurosawa’s Seven Samurai (April 21); back-to-back screenings of Mad Max: Fury Road and Aliens on Mother’s Day (May 12); all six Mission: Impossible films

He's the only man who could hang with Eminem on The Marshall Mathers LP. And he's still doin his thing a full fifteen years after making everybody Slam. Sticky Fingaz is, inarguably, one of the nicest to ever touch a mic and this week he sat down with us at RapReviews to talk about the new Onyx retrospective that just came out on DVD, his feelings on the way Hip-Hop historians have been treating the group's legacy, and what Patrick Swayze, Tia Carrrere and Tom Berenger all have in common. Editor's Note – I'm pretty sure I lost some money at the end of this interview. Adam Bernard: You have the new Onyx DVD, 15 Years of Videos, History and Violence, in stores now. What does it have for longtime fans? Sticky Fingaz: It basically has every video we ever did as Onyx and as solo artists and it has an hour and fifteen minute documentary. They had these dudes called Underground Funk that used to just follow us around everywhere we went with a camcorder, so we got all that caught on tape. It's definitely never seen before footage.

  • Film, Politics, and Ideology: Reflections on Hollywood Film in the Age of Reagan* Douglas Kellner (
    Film, Politics, and Ideology: Reflections on Hollywood Film in the Age of Reagan* Douglas Kellner (http://www.gseis.ucla.edu/faculty/kellner/) In our book Camera Politica: Politics and Ideology in Contemporary Hollywood Film (1988), Michael Ryan and I argue that Hollywood film from the 1960s to the present was closely connected with the political movements and struggles of the epoch. Our narrative maps the rise and decline of 60s radicalism; the failure of liberalism and rise of the New Right in the 1970s; and the triumph and hegemony of the Right in the 1980s. In our interpretation, many 1960s films transcoded the discourses of the anti-war, New Left student movements, as well as the feminist, black power, sexual liberationist, and countercultural movements, producing a new type of socially critical Hollywood film. Films, on this reading, transcode, that is to say, translate, representations, discourses, and myths of everyday life into specifically cinematic terms, as when Easy Rider translates and organizes the images, practices, and discourses of the 1960s counterculture into a cinematic text. Popular films intervene in the political struggles of the day, as when 1960s films advanced the agenda of the New Left and the counterculture. Films of the "New Hollywood," however, such as Bonnie and Clyde, Medium Cool, Easy Rider, etc., were contested by a resurgence of rightwing films during the same era (e.g. Dirty Harry, The French Connection, and any number of John Wayne films), leading us to conclude that Hollywood film, like U.S. society, should be seen as a contested terrain and that films can be interpreted as a struggle of representation over how to construct a social world and everyday life.

    1 FAKE NEWS UPDATE S01_Wk18 “Week18 - Tuesday” July 30th, 2019 - “That’s Swayze, Baby!” Written by Cody Hofmockel, Brigham Mosley, and Isaac Young Copyright © 2018 Spoke Media Contact: 2001 Bryan St. Floor 39 Dallas, TX 75205 Phone: 214.453.1881 Email: [email protected] PERENNIAL The Fake News Update is brought to you in part by the 1987 smash flash hit, DIRTY DANCING! Look, folks - this flick raked in 214 million 1987 dollars! That’s a lot of scratch! The film was based on screenwriter Eleanor Bergstein's own childhood. She originally wrote a screenplay for the Michael Douglas film It's My Turn, but ultimately ended up conceiving a story for a film which became Dirty Dancing. She finished the script in 1985, but management changes at MGM put the 1 2 film in development hell. The production company was changed to Vestron Pictures with Emile Ardolino as director and Linda Gottlieb as producer. Filming took place in Lake Lure, North Carolina, and Mountain Lake, Virginia, with the film's score composed by John Morris and dance choreography by Kenny Ortega. Kenneth John Ortega is an American producer, director and choreographer. He directed the films Newsies, Hocus Pocus, the High School Musical trilogy, and the Descendants trilogy. Ortega has choreographed films including St. Elmo's Fire, Pretty in Pink, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, and Dirty Dancing. Dirty Dancing is a 1987 American romantic drama dance film written by Eleanor Bergstein and directed by Emile Ardolino. It stars Jennifer Grey as Frances "Baby" Houseman, a young woman who falls in love with dance instructor Johnny Castle, played by Patrick Swayze.

  • Julien's Auctions Kicks Off 2017 with Property from The
    For Immediate Release: JULIEN’S AUCTIONS KICKS OFF 2017 WITH PROPERTY FROM THE ESTATE OF PATRICK SWAYZE Leather Jacket from “Dirty Dancing” and Shirt from “Ghost” Highlight the Extraordinary Collection from the Award Winning Beloved Actor April 28-29, 2017 – Julien’s Auctions Los Angeles Los Angeles, California – (February 8, 2017) – Julien’s Auctions, the world- record breaking auction house to the stars has announced the first auction event of their 2017 season — Property from the Estate of Patrick Swayze. The auction will take place April 28-29, 2017 at Julien’s Auctions in Los Angeles. Swayze, cherished by fans and remembered by Hollywood, is often referred to as an inspiration and a rare and beautiful combination of masculinity, grace and a tender heart. (photo left: Leather jacket worn by Patrick Swayze in Dirty Dancing) Patrick Swayze was the beloved actor and three-time Golden Globe nominee who died too early in 2009. He became an instant celebrity in 1987 when he starred as the misunderstood dance instructor Johnny Castle in the surprise hit Dirty Dancing. The movie established Swayze as Hollywood’s hottest new heartthrob. The actor, dancer and singer-songwriter was married to the love-of-his-life, Lisa Niemi, whom he met when she was just 16. Together they would become one of Hollywood’s most revered and admired couples. Swayze’s other love affair was dance which he took up as early as grade school. This would later lead him to New York where he trained with the Harkness and Joffrey Ballet companies and, soon afterwards, was hired as a principle dancer with the Elliot Feld Ballet Company.

  • Tom Cruise America’S Dorian Gray
    TOM CRUISE AMERICA’S DORIAN GRAY A 52’ documentary Directed by Régis Brochier Produced by Arte France & Tournez S'il vous plait PROVISIONAL DELIVERY : JUNE 2020 Confronted with this image of a man who never seems to age, but who often reveals chilling fragments of himself on film, the temptation to depict Tom Cruise as an American Dorian Gray was irresistible. His Wildean pact with the world is quite simply fascinating. DIRECTOR’S NOTE I want to ask how, after 40 years in the business and approaching his sixties, Tom Cruise has ended up becoming an almost supernatural film icon. Impervious to the passing of time and the twists and turns in his life, he remains suspiciously good-looking and continues to charms audiences the world over. It really is like a spell. He embodies the idea of blockbuster movies more than almost any other actor out there. Audiences are sort of hypnotised by this Dorian Gray-like figure that could only have been made in America. I am part of the generation that grew up watching Top Gun, Days of Thunder and Cocktail. Tom Cruise was the cinema of my childhood. Later, he appeared in films by directors I had learned to appreciate as a film buff, giants such as Martin Scorsese, Brian De Palma, John Woo, Michael Mann, Sidney Pollack and Paul Thomas Anderson. In the late 1990s, his career brought him nothing but success. He and Nicole Kidman formed the ultimate celebrity couple. Even his belief in scientology, already public knowledge, was not a problem, until the couple split up.

  • Patrick Swayze, Star of „Dirty Dancing,‟ Dies at 57 by ANITA GATES New York Times Published: September 14, 2009
    Patrick Swayze, Star of „Dirty Dancing,‟ Dies at 57 By ANITA GATES New York Times Published: September 14, 2009 Patrick Swayze, the balletically athletic actor who rose to stardom in the films “Dirty Dancing” and “Ghost” and whose 20-month battle with advanced pancreatic cancer drew wide attention, died Monday. He was 57. Patrick Swayze in 2005. His publicist, Annett Wolf, told The Associated Press in Los Angeles that Mr. Swayze died with family at his side. Mr. Swayze‟s cancer was diagnosed in January 2008. Six months after that, he had already outlived his prognosis and was filmed at an airport, smiling at photographers and calling himself, only half-facetiously, “a miracle dude.” He even went through with plans to star in “The Beast,” a new drama series for A&E, and filmed a complete season while undergoing treatment. Mr. Swayze insisted on continuing with the series. “How do you nurture a positive attitude when all the statistics say you‟re a dead man?” he said to Bill Carter of The New York Times last October. “You go to work.” The show, on which he plays an undercover F.B.I. agent, had its premiere in January and earned him admiring reviews. A week before the series began, Mr. Swayze was the subject of a one-hour “Barbara Walters Special” on ABC, talking about his illness. “I keep my heart and my soul and my spirit open to miracles,” he told Ms. Walters. But he said he was not going to pursue every experimental treatment that came along. If he were to “spend so much time chasing staying alive,” he said, he wouldn‟t be able to enjoy the time he had left.
