Patrick Swayze: Hollywoods Traumtänzer

Patrick Swayze you wonderful soul. As a teenager and young man, I admired you for your charisma and acting skills. I also admired your strenght and your empathy. The more I learned about your personality, the more impressed I was. I read your biography. Your life, your abilities and your wonderful being can hardly be put into a book or a movie. That much is certain.

I just cried my eyes out. This documentary has brought out everything that is possible. 5 stars for you as a human being and therefore for this respectful documentary.

Rest in peace. Thank you for your inspiration. I will never forget you.

Just finished watching I am Patrick Swayze (2019). I realized that I've seen most of his movies and these are the movies of my youth. I didn't know about his problems with alcohol and the recognition of Hollywood as Kelly Lynch mentions in the movie. It's a sad movie about a guy with an unbelievable career, stamina and physical charisma. At the same time, it's a story about a vulnerable guy who had his ups and downs, just like every one of us. In this line of thoughts, the image of Patrick Swayze shines not only with that polished perfectionism through the typical macho outlook but sparkles with the variety of different characters which he portrayed and they completed the gamut of his possibilities as an actor. You will see a lot of big names talking about him here within whom are also his wife Lisa Niemi and Rob Lowe. A must-see for the kids like me who grew up in the 80s and not only. It's also a wake-up call how short human life is. Watch it and cry for a while. It's good to cry.

This is a very touching documentary. I always loved Patrick Swayze, and am still so sad that he died young. It was great to hear his brother being interviewed, (you get to see Patrick's eyes again) and really enjoyed all those who contributed. I especially fond Rob Lowe (whom I never liked before..) very entertaining.

He had a heart of gold, something I already knew confirmed over and over. Miss you Patrick.

It's a touching documentary and shows pretty much all of Patrick as an actor and a person. It was very loving person to all as we can see. I am a little bit disappointed because it didn't show the mini series he played called "North and South ". In my point of view was a great mini series! I am from Greece and here we loved watching it at '80s.

Been a fan of Patrick since Dirty Dancing and always thought he was underated as an actor. Good documentary with a great insight into his many talents.
