...relating...

I have to wonder, because the movie ends (as all movies do) before you figure out what lies in store for the characters in the future, whether Baby Housman ever grew up. Whether she ever lost her naivete, or stopped trying to fix the world; stopped protecting her Johnny Castle, or hoping for him.

I hear that Jennifer Grey was a lot like her character in real life - I know that she became glamorous and centred in the future, secure in herself. I also know that her nose job was a big part of that. Maybe that will do the trick for me, too?
