What I Am Patrick Swayze Is About

Adrian Buitenhuis builds his portrait of Patrick Swayze out of the people who knew him best. The road runs from a Houston boy raised by a dance teacher, beaten up by other kids for taking ballet and pushed off the football field by a knee injury, to the man of Dirty Dancing, Ghost, Point Break and Road House, with the drinking years and his father's death sitting in the middle of it. Jennifer Grey, Demi Moore, Sam Elliott, Kelly Lynch and Lori Petty speak, cut against archive footage and Swayze's own voice. The last stretch covers the pancreatic cancer diagnosis and his decision to keep working after it. The film admires him openly, but it does not sand him into a saint.
