<Li> "(I've Had) The Time of My Life"--Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes </Li> <P> Note: Actress Jane Brucker wrote the song "Hula Hana", which she performed in her role of Lisa in the show rehearsal scene . </P> <P> Dirty Dancing is based in large part on screenwriter Eleanor Bergstein's own childhood: she is the younger daughter of a Jewish doctor from New York, spent summers with her family in the Catskills, participated in "Dirty Dancing" competitions, and was herself nicknamed "Baby" as a girl . In 1980, Bergstein wrote a screenplay for the Michael Douglas film, It's My Turn . However, the producers cut an erotic dancing scene from the script, much to her dismay . She then conceived a new story, focused almost exclusively on dancing . In 1984, she pitched the idea to MGM executive Eileen Miselle, who liked it and teamed Bergstein with producer Linda Gottlieb . They set the film in 1963, with the character of Baby based on Bergstein's own life, and the character of Johnny based on the stories of Michael Terrace, a dance instructor whom Bergstein met in the Catskills in 1985 while she was researching the story . She finished the script in November 1985, but management changes at MGM put the script into turnaround, or limbo . </P> <P> Bergstein then shopped the script around to other studios but was repeatedly rejected, until she brought it to Vestron Pictures, the newly formed studio division of Stamford, Connecticut, based Vestron Inc., the leading independent home video distribution company . While honing their pitch to Vestron, Gottlieb and Bergstein chose Emile Ardolino as the film's director, who had won the 1983 Academy Award for the documentary, He Makes Me Feel Like Dancin' . Ardolino had never directed a feature film, but was extremely passionate about the project; he even sent a message from where he was sequestered on jury duty, insisting that he was the best choice as director . The team of Gottlieb, Bergstein, and Ardolino then presented their vision for the film to Vestron's president, Jon Peisinger, and the company's vice president for production, Mitchell Cannold . By the end of the meeting, Peisinger had greenlighted the project to become Vestron's first feature film production . The approved film was budgeted at the relatively low amount of $5 million, at a time when the average cost for a film was $12 million . </P>
