Houston, Texas, USA:
Patrick Wayne Swayze (18 agosto 1952 – 14 settembre 2009) è stato un attore, ballerino e cantautore americano. Conosciuto per i suoi ruoli romantici, duri e comici in blockbuster e film cult, Swayze è stato nominato a tre Golden Globe e ha ricevuto una stella sulla Hollywood Walk of Fame nel 1997. Swayze ricevette riconoscimenti per la recitazione nel film drammatico The Outsiders (1983), nel film d'azione Red Dawn (1984) e nella miniserie North and South (1985–1986). Il suo successo arrivò con il film drammatico romantico Dirty Dancing (1987), che ricevette una nomination ai Golden Globe. Ha raggiunto ulteriore notorietà con i film d'azione Road House (1989) e Point Break (1991), e ha ricevuto altre due nomination ai Golden Globe per i suoi ruoli nel film soprannaturale romantico Ghost (1990) e nella road comedy To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar (1995). Ha avuto anche un ruolo importante nel thriller cult Donnie Darko (2001). Oltre alla recitazione, Swayze ha co-scritto e registrato la canzone "She's Like the Wind" con Stacy Widelitz per la colonna sonora dei Dirty Dancing, che ha raggiunto la terza posizione nella Billboard Hot 100. È stato anche riconosciuto per la sua immagine pubblica e il suo aspetto, ed è stato nominato "L'uomo più sexy del mondo" dalla rivista People nel 1991. Il 14 settembre 2009, Swayze morì di cancro al pancreas all'età di 57 anni.
