Jennifer Grey – Dirty Dancing
The year 1984 was when American actress Jennifer Grey made her acting debut with her film “Reckless.” Just two years later, she got her big break with a part in the smash hit film “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.” By 1987, she had landed a Golden Globe Award nomination and worldwide fame after working in the romantic drama film “Dirty Dancing.”
She also gave equally outstanding performances in other movies during the decade like “The Cotton Club,” “Red Dawn,” and “Bloodhounds of Broadway.” In 2021, she appeared in the short film Grief Night Club, directed by Nolan Robinson.
