Five awesome movies filmed in Puerto Rico

3. Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights

In this sort-of-a-sequel-but-not-really sequel to ?Dirty Dancing?, the late Patrick Swayze makes a cameo as an instructor teaching a girl how to dance, well, dirty. Although not a successful movie, this movie gave new life to the dying Puerto Rico cinema scene of the time by bringing back high profile studios to bolster the Puerto Rican film economy.

While the movie is based in Havana, Cuba, some scenes were filmed in the southern city of Ponce, transforming a whole street in the town center plaza as a 1960?s era Havana.
