The movie almost had another name
When the film first came out in the late 1980s, the title “Dirty Dancing” was scandalous, and it became such a big issue that censorship officers were hesitant and assumed it was porn at first. Despite the faint scandalous tag, it is still a better name than “I Was a Teenage Mambo Queen.”
When the issues started, the studio was adamant about changing it, all to the surprise of Patrick Swayze, who claimed he also hated the name. Still, we are glad about the name and the movie’s entire plot, as it would be quite unfortunate if it was changed.
