It showed a deep understanding when he pointed out that in Tootsie and Doubtfire the characters "were men playing women" but here he was playing "a man who could have no identity or life unless she was a woman." I think that no matter how outdated or problematic the movie gets over time, trans people still love the movie because of the passion and empathy Swayze (and Snipes and Leguizamo) put into the roles at a time where it really could have been a mockery. You can even hear the interviewer trying to harp on the silliness of it, but I remember Patrick saying in another interview that it was the most emotional acting experience he's had, and it comes across on film.
So beautiful I'm straight but watching this is like a treasure this is why people should never give up what you want to be in life Patrick/Aunty Vida shall be missed
I just watched this movie and it is one of those films that you can watch over and over again. They were all spectacular in their roles, really amazing. RIP Swayze, you sexy beast.
In my 6 decades of being a girl/woman I have never looked as good in a dress, pantyhose, & makeup as did Patrick Swayze. But, I'll forgive him for outshining me because he made me laugh & cry & love him so much. Godspeed, sir!

To add to this... John gave an interview later on that revealed he and Swayze had a lot of creative differences on the set. So that is probably whom he is referring to when he says a lot of people had a lot of ideas and there were clashes. Because ultimately they all did want to do a good job, so it seems like John Leguizamo was definitely one of those people who had a definite idea of how things should be.
Those gorgeous blue eyes! Heavy sigh. . . It took me a couple of times watching this movie to like it. I'm a fan of the Australian version "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert". Absolutely hilarious!!!
He played someone who truly identified as woman. His character was not supposed to make you laugh at him, which actually made more risky for him. He pulled it off quite beautifully. Swayze was very underrated.
I just saw this movie and I can't stop thinking about it. It is so witty, funny and has a great message. These boys were amazing. I am so sad that Patrick is no longer with us. He was so talented and plus he looked soooo good as both man and woman.
I really like the actor Patrick Swayze and the film Dirty dancing. In North Carolina, a festival of this film, where he was shooting a film in memory of Patrick Swayze August 24, 2018. You coming? Email me. Gather a group of like-minded people. There will be a lot interesting.
Великолепное исполнение великолепного МАСТЕРА КИНО Патрика Суэйзи!!! Низкий поклон его таланту. Он так хотел оставить после себя что-то стоящее... И у него это получилось. Столь разноплановых ролей не каждому артисту доступно. Низкий поклон. BRAVO MAESTRO!!!!
God, how I wish I could send him a letter just to thank him for Vida Boheme. While most people wouldn't have made it past the novelty back then, these three actors played their characters with a true respect for them. And it made a world of difference to a young gay kid in the Midwest with aspirations to be a drag queen..
Love Some Like It Hot and Tootsie, this movie fits beautifully with those classics, and I think that male actors really get a since of what it’s like to live a woman physically, maybe some mental aspects slip in there too, and I love the movies because they’re heartwarming and show a side that’s nurturing as well as glamorous, well done Patrick, may you RIP
R.I.P This will never be out of time for me but this movie will always in my eyes, be the true angels they truly played, I can never get enough of this movie
My dad got the chance to tell him for us that To wong foo was our favorite movie we we're 11 yrs old but parents raised us to understand the world is big and beautiful and to accept everyone for who they are. Patrick was expecting my dad to say loved u in Dirty dancing or Ghost but never my favorite with u is To wong foo, He loved doing the movie he was having fun doing it and you can see it was alot of fun! I wish there we're more movies like to wong foo
I love this movie. When I saw at it the theater, it was such a change seeing famous Hollywood men playing something so different from what they usually represent onscreen. It was refreshing.
Immer wenn es mir nicht gut geht schau ich Videos über Patrick und dann geht es mir besser. ❤😊 Mein Baby gehört zu mir 😊,mein absoluter Lieblingsfilm ❤❤seid meiner Jugend.
Theres so much tension over the topic that they both are trying to appear comfortable with, but you can tell times were different and they're both unsure what to say.
My mom introduced me to this movie when I was too young to really understand it, but I always enjoyed it, it was so funny and I didn’t know names and stuff but I knew all 3 of the main characters, and then I also didn’t realize rizo from the original grease and even Robbie Williams made an appearance, but I never realized that they were playing drag queens, it wasn’t until I thoroughly watched the movie as I got older and saw the beginning bit of them getting into their drag attire that I was like oooohhh now I get it, but such a classic good film and I would love for them to make another version of this in the future
3:25 Aww the way he talks about his character is touching. It seems like he was passionate about portraying her honestly as possible.
Patrick was passionate about every role he played. He was authentic, and the more he worked, the better he became as an actor.

Have you ever seen The Adventures of Priscilla Queen of the Desert?
So beautiful I'm straight but watching this is like a treasure this is why people should never give up what you want to be in life Patrick/Aunty Vida shall be missed
I am also straight but he looked hot in drag.
The respect he speaks for his character in this movie is so kind. He truly respected the art of drag.
Breaks my heart. He was precious.
omg this is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. It came out when I was in my 20s and I am now 51 and still watch it every chance I get
If u were 51 in 2015. This means your born about 1964. This movie came out in 1995. U would be 31 or your 30s, not your 20s.
One of my favorites as well he was gorgeous as Vida
It’s on Netflix now! I just watched it twice

He was beautiful. He nailed it
He's in heaven now he should have won an Emmy for this
Emmys are for TV. Oscars are for theatrical movies.
Are you sure about that ?
gorgeous love him so much he was so sweet in this movie, r.i.p
No wonder Patrick brought Vida to life, his explanation of her character is really lovely and honest :)
Miss Vida reminded me of my mother. To Pat and my Mama, thanks for everything. RIP u too. I love u guys.
I am the prettiest. Lol. He was the best person ever. RIP.
We can all agree that Vida is an angel ❤️
I wish I had her in my life 😕
RIP, Patrick Swayze 🕊
Rest In peace, Patrick/Auntie Vida. You are greatly missed.
It’s very obvious that John Leguizamo was the most comfortable. He seemed to enjoy himself a lot.
Pretty much
Agreed!
And that’s why he stole the show. he went for it.
I wonder if he has any latina divas in his life that he modeled her after lol

Sooo charming. The world misses him.
I watch this movie all the time,and patrick was the most beautiful, I was really shocked on Wesley character, he did really good
Vida Bohème lives for ever !!!!
love and miss him so!
Those gorgeous blue eyes! Heavy sigh. . .
It took me a couple of times watching this movie to like it. I'm a fan of the Australian version "Priscilla, Queen of the Desert".
Absolutely hilarious!!!
I thought it was hilarious and actually very moving at the same time. I have always loved that film.
When will another drag queen movie of substance like this be made? My fav
mayroymusik incredible
it’ll never stack up to to wong foo. it’s very real and raw and i don’t think the world could handle shit like that anymore
Never again. But I'm happy about the show Pose
The birdcage lol it was amazing
@@stephanierivera8064 Omg....yes!! Loved that movie. Nathan Lane was hilarious 🤣
Chi chi was obviously more fish, iconic movie, my favorite movie! 👏👑 RIP Patrick 🙏😢
labellav1103 i always thought she was an actual woman i didn’t know john leguizamo when the movie came out
love this film and Patrick Swayze's old southern charm
my god was he a georgous man.rip patrick swayze
Patrick should have won an Oscar, for Ghost or for this movie. Great actor. You believed every part he ever played in.
He SURE was the prettiest! Sooooo CUTE!!
He played someone who truly identified as woman. His character was not supposed to make you laugh at him, which actually made more risky for him. He pulled it off quite beautifully. Swayze was very underrated.
Im obsessed with Patrick swayze patrick is so cute
one of my favorite movies!
Anyone still watching in November 2019?? Long live, Patrick Swayze! Excellent job for all 3- of these incredible men!
January 2024. 😊❤
Loved this movie, watched it for the first time in ages, after a bit of hunting for it, last night.
thank you for posting this.. it was amazing ...just like the movie...I honestly hope they make a sequel to this movie it deserves one...
I just saw this movie and I can't stop thinking about it. It is so witty, funny and has a great message. These boys were amazing. I am so sad that Patrick is no longer with us. He was so talented and plus he looked soooo good as both man and woman.

I would love to, but unfortunately, I will not be able to come.
Tatyana, I from Russia? You too? Can communicate through social networks, if you want, in Russian.
I am from Serbia :)
This movie is so underrated. Great movie and incredible actors to boot.
I always wanted to meet him in person. Never had the opportunity too. But growing up, I loved him as an actor.
I thought he makes a very attractive woman.
Yes he did
I had to look up what his mother looked like to find any similarities, he truly did have such a warm and nurturing look.
Then you're blinded by the puppets deceiving the masses. Women don't look like that. You must be homosexual to think that way.
@@raynekimi2755 some women do my love. No need for the hate.
Wonderful, I totally forgot they were Men.. Seriously!!! Incredible Acting!!
What in gay hell? Lol...love when they are getting pulled over and Pat Swayze says that.
Wonderful performance!!!! Great film and GREAT actor! :)) R.I.P Patrick! :))
He was so fine omg😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘😘 RIP handsome🙏👼
I’ve seen a side of him I never imagined. He’s very much a professional! Very talented.
He was such a lovely and attractive guy aswell as awesome actor 🥰👏
He was just such a sweetheart!
He's the cutest!
Still one of my favorite movies🥰

I love this movie omg i have watched this on Netflix twice it's amazing movie😊
Love this movie so much! I will say it’s hard watching old interviews in general mainly because interviewers were so bold and bigoted
one of the most amazing movies ever! so clever! love it and patrick really was so so pretty
Look at patrick Swayze's impenatrable eye contact and unshaking confidence not budging or nervously laughing or any such thing. I think that's amazing
Beautiful spirit.
An amazing movie. Love it.
Tootsie - Dustin Hoffman! 💖 Mrs. Doubtfire - Robin Williams! 💖 Some Like It Hot - Jack Lemmon + Tony Curtis 💖 Hairspray - John Travolta 💖
Wonderful movie just saw last night on Netflix.. challenging character I was laughing until the movie finished
Miss you Patrick!!
Theres so much tension over the topic that they both are trying to appear comfortable with, but you can tell times were different and they're both unsure what to say.
