2. From Dirty Dancing 3. Set in the summer of 63,Dirty Dancingis thestory of Baby an 17-year-old little girl who lovesher daddy and wants to save the world, onestarving Southeast Asian country at a time. Whilevacationing at a ritzy summer resort with herfamily, Baby meets Johnny Castle a danceinstructor who teaches the mambo by day anddoes his own kind of dancin by night. She isinstantly attracted to him. When Baby takes arisk to help out one of Johnnys friends, therebegins a powerful romance, one that must behidden from both the girls father and the resortowner. 4. There is quite a lot of non-verbalcommunication in this scene. I see this through the main characters(Babyand Johnny) body language. They aredancing closely to each other so they aretherefore very comfortable with each other. Their posture shows that they are proud tobe with each other as they are not hunchedover. Their facial expressions and eye contactshow that they are happy as they are smilingat one another, also they keep looking at oneanother. 5. Thisscene is set at the very end of the movie. It is set in the main dance or function room. 6. There is a natural lighting in this scene. It is quite dim as is the usual for a functionlike this. Also, there is a spotlight on the maincharacters when they go up onto the stage. 7. The costumes that the main characters useare very contrasted as Baby wears a plainwhite dress, which symbolises her purity. Johnny is dressed all in black to show that heis more tough. Also, when the staff dance up the aisles theyare just wearing jeans while the guests arewearing elegant cocktail dresses and suits. 8. There is an establishing shot at the verybeginning, where it sweeps over the dancehall. There is a long shot of Baby and Johnny whenthey are standing on the stage, when theyare dancing and when the big lift. There is a medium shot when they aredancing also, and when they are facing eachother. 9. There is a close up on Baby when she is onthe stage and when Johnny jumps off, thisshows her happiness and delight. At the very last moment of the movie thereis a high angle as it shows all the people,staff and guests dancing. 10. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9BbUqHrWFI
