Dirty Dancing is a film that was supposed to be a chick flick but ended up having universal appeal. With a soundtrack that spawned karaoke classics, it made the most of Patrick Swayze's talents and achieved huge box office success. "Nobody puts Baby in the corner", as he said in the film. As it turns out, nobody makes Swayze drive, either.
Check out this scene, where Swayze is driving through a rain storm. It makes sense to take extra care when you're driving in wet weather, but we wouldn't recommend going as far as leaving the handbrake on. In any scene where Swayze is driving, the gear shift is a dead giveaway that the car isn't actually going anywhere. But then maybe going on a trip wasn't really what he had in mind when he got her into the car.
