This week marks the 25th anniversary of one of the biggest films of the 1980s: 'Dirty Dancing', the film that made stars of both Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey, and went on to influence a host of films since then.
The movie itself marks the hallmarks of '80s cinema: the dancing, the flamboyant dress, the distinctive soundtrack, as well as the recurring themes of social identity and coming-of-age.
In celebration of the 25th anniversary of one of the archetypal films of its era, join us as we look back at 25 of the most '80s films of the 1980s.
