Patrick Swayze in His Heyday

Patrick Swayze in His Heyday

Patrick Swayze has died at the age of 57, after a long battle with cancer.

A former ballet and Broadway dancer, Mr. Swayze rarely received more than tepid reviews for his onscreen emotional range. But he found enduring mass approval for a handful of movie roles that took advantage of his muscular build, tousled blond hair and charismatic swagger.

Rita Kempley, a former Washington Post film critic, once described Mr. Swayze’s appeal as “a cross of Brando and Balanchine. From the neck up, he looks like a guy who could fix your carburetor; from the neck down he has the body of an Olympian.”

Um, YEAH. He was beautiful and a great dancer. We will miss you, Patrick!

Always brings tears to my eyes, DYB!

Swayze was a sweet, talented man who was faithful to his wife for decades. He brought a lot of pleasure to a lot of people. May he rest in peace.

Lord, don’t get between my Mom and teevee when Dirty Dancing was coming on. You’d get run over! :lol:

I’m LOL here…one time I saw To Wong Fu…was coming on so I told the momster “Hey Patrick Swayze is coming on tonight.” I told her what channel, etc.

Later I went into her bedroom and she had a different channel on. I said “what’s wrong, you didn’t want to watch Patrick Swayze?” She kinda wrinkled up her face and nose and said “I didn’t like him like that.” 8O :lol:

And, as Wilson is about to be reprimanded, so is Terry Moran for revealing Teh One’s outburst
