You can think what you want of Swayze's films: the man accompanied my cinematic socialization just as much as Arnie, Sly and Bruce. Above all, he is remembered for films like Coppola's "The Outsiders" or the controversial apocalyptic trash movie "Red Dawn", in which he played together with many other later US teen idols, or for "Road House" and "To Wong Foo, thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar», in which he appeared as a drag queen alongside Wesley Snipes.
Swayze is best known for his role as Orry Main in the TV series Torches in the Storm. However, he only became unforgettable with "Dirty Dancing", which earned him a Golden Globe nomination. Some mediocre action bangers followed, then came "Point Break" and Jerry Zucker's tearjerker "Ghost", for which he received another Golden Globe nomination for best actor alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Demi Moore, until it was quiet around him for the time being became.
Whether playing cops, fumblers, surfers, troubled spirits lovers or fathers of families, despite his temporary fame, Swayze has always remained more of the solid worker than the glamorous star, perhaps one reason his career never really took off. He was never gone, but also far from real stardom. As Johnny in "Dirty Dancing" he gave all the ugly ducklings hope that one day they would find the dancing Superman who would give them the "time of their lives" with the sentence "Nobody puts baby in a corner". The low-budget flick with the cheesy, bittersweet story became a phenomenon, a true cult that has lasted to this day and is constantly being revived in stage shows.
In early 2008, chain smoker Swayze was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer, and doctors gave him little hope. "If I live another 5 years, it's a lot," he said in an interview. Despite the bleak prognosis, Swayze worked to the end, shooting TV movies and the series The Beast. He refused to take painkillers because he didn't want to appear in front of the camera in a daze. He lost the battle with cancer yesterday. Patrick Swayze died at the age of 57 surrounded by his family. With a small lump in my throat, I say quietly: "Servus Patrick."
More for you:
"Dravens Tales from the Crypt" has been enchanting for over 15 years with a tasteless mixture of humor, serious journalism - for current events and unbalanced reporting in the press politics - and zombies, garnished with lots of art, entertainment and punk rock. Draven has turned his hobby into a popular brand that cannot be classified.
My blog was never designed to spread news, let alone get political, but with current affairs I just can't help but capture information here that is otherwise censored on all other channels. I am aware that the design page may not seem "serious" to many in this regard, but I will not change this to please the "mainstream". Anyone who is open to non-state-compliant information sees the content and not the packaging. I've tried enough to provide people with information over the last 2 years, but quickly noticed that it never matters how it's "packaged", but what the other person's attitude towards it is. I don't want to put honey on anyone's mouth to meet expectations in any way, so I'll keep this design because hopefully at some point I'll be able to stop making these political statements, because it's not my goal to go on like this forever 
I leave it up to everyone how they deal with it. However, you are welcome to simply copy and distribute the content, my blog has always been under the WTFPL license.
