This iconic Dirty Dancing scene was unscripted
<p><em>Dirty Dancing</em> was released in 1987 and won us over with its extraordinary choreography but one dance scene wasn’t even supposed to be in the film.</p>
<p>During a rehearsal, Jennifer Grey and Patrick Swayze crawled around on the floor as a warm-up exercise.</p>
<p>However, director Emile Ardolino loved what they were doing so much that he made the warm-up part of the movie.</p>

<p><em>Dirty Dancing</em> became a massive success and the role of Johnny was originally offered to Val Kilmer who turned it down last minute allowing Patrick Swayze to become an international sensation.</p>
<p>Sarah Jessica Parker and Billy Zane also auditioned for the leading roles and were strongly considered but didn’t make the cut reportedly because their dancing skills weren’t as strong.</p>
