Patrick Swayze: 1952-2009

Patrick Swayze

Today I learned, as the rest of us did, that Patrick Swayze has died after a brave battle with pancreatic cancer.

Swayze is a screen legend with an extensive resume, perhaps best known for his work in Dirty Dancing and Ghost, roles that cultivated his status as a heartthrob and helped him win People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive in 1991.

Just last week I had the pleasure of watching him kick ass and take names as James Dalton in the action-romp Road House, one of the most entertaining B-movies the 80’s had to offer.

In his memory, here is just one classic moment from that film.
