    Abstract
    This essay assembles a history of the Dirty Dancing franchise--its soundtracks and music singles, ancillary products and collectibles, spin-offs, sequels, reissues and stage performances--to consider what its pattern of profit and loss, success and failure reveals about the appeal of a film that has become a cult object of pop film, music and dance cultures.This essay assembles a history of the Dirty Dancing franchise--its soundtracks and music singles, ancillary products and collectibles, spin-offs, sequels, reissues and stage performances--to consider what its pattern of profit and loss, success and failure reveals about the appeal of a film that has become a cult object of pop film, music and dance cultures.
