Party dancing scene... why?


This part made me cringe... why do movies put in these silly scenes?

I bet it was dan aykroyd's idea. he's had dancing scenes like that in other movies too.

It was one of my favorites. The camera adored him.

Here's a quote from vanityfair:
"The first day of shooting, Robinson thought River was fine—but when he saw him in dailies, he was much more impressed. “He makes very quirky choices that really come alive on film,” the director said."

I don't though pay money to read any of those supposed tell-alls.

I really liked that scene, actually. The O'Donnell character interacting with each of those quirky guys differently was good fun. Beat the crap out of the blind guy driving scene, which made me cringe.
