      Remember that actors are trained to control not just their face, but also their bodies. Think of acting as very very slow dancing. You'll often find videos of actors cutting it up on the dance floor. Chris Hemsworth and Tom Holland come to mind.

This is Her dancing to a 'T'. The haunting gaze, the goofy Addams' dancing, the Spanish sass. And the fact that she even added in this element of spook when Wednesday drops down and reappears behind him. It's just 💋🤌truly. And on top of the dancing, just in her eyes, not only can you feel the disdain for the social event and the dancing but also the enjoyment of keeping her date on his toes.

    There's definitely an awkwardness to the choreography, but it actually works on a character level.

At the same time, that perfect Wednesday mask is on full force. The fact that she hits the movements so well helps a great deal

    I love that they used The Cramps- goo goo muck for this scene. Finally good music is starting to resurface again in film and tv. The most epic movies and shows for me growing up were epic because of the soundtracks....even when Wednesday plays cello...paint it black - the rolling stones...epic! This is why tim burton and danny Elfman are power houses ...they bring the scene and the sound together like fluid dance parters

    It's cool how this pays homage to Wednesday's dancing in the TV-series from the 60's (when it was just contemporary pop music, like the equivalent of Taylor Swift today, but now that the music is 60 years old, it emphasizes how old school she is instead).
    I also love how she throws in little bits of flamenco and tango, similar to how her parents would dance both in the TV-series and in the movies from the 90's.(and even a bit of Lurch)
