It’s when Wednesday truly smiles, you better watch out

[Velo.Muerto]

I'm of direct Native American descent and I hereby proclaim this is one of the best scenes in modern film.

[prenimystic]

As a native, this scene brought me so much satisfaction.
I will love it till the day I die.

[twentyonetortas]

I just love how after causing righteous chaos they just chill at the dining table watching the counselors get roasted while Wednesday and Joel enjoy their romantic canoeing.

[daniels]

Amanda: "I'll be the victim!"
Wednesday: "All your life."

[Noodlelandia]

Fun fact: The Native Americans had a more efficient way of keeping clean and would wash themselves more often that the Pilgrims and that kept them from getting sick since the Pilgrims hardly ever bathed

[jamessinclair]

My Grandmother was an Cree Indian who barely spoke English. When she first saw this she couldn’t stop laughing. She experienced racism her whole entire life and it was like Wednesday got revenge for every act of racism she ever experienced.

The kid in the wheelchair wrapping the rope around Amanda will forever kill me 😂😂

[greysenmcclure]

When Wednesday was being nice to Sarah and then she turned back to herself I was like "there's the Wednesday we all know and love"😂

[soggy_lasagna]

"I am a turkey! *KILL ME!* "

I love this movie's writing

[jeffersonadams]

There's a freakin' _brilliant_ foreshadowing to this scene. The day before, when the counselor asks Wednesday why she doesn't want to be Pocahontas in his play (which I assume she had read by that point), she answers that his work displays a lack of understanding of "the Aristotelian unities". She's not just throwing shade at him by telling him that; the Aristotelian unities are used as guides to writing tragic plays--i.e. plays with themes of _human suffering and misery_

[genematthewjuanico]

I like how the kids that played the indians were down to literally set the stage on fire, I don't think Wednesday even needed to convince them, She just asked if they wanted to commit arson and they were like "Heck yeah we do!"

[niallragnarsson]

Where’s the lie in this? The Addams family gave us the cold truth 👍🏻

[katiemettam]

Look at Wednesday, she is so proud of this masterpiece she has created. Wednesday realised what the most important parts of history are: war, fire, and revolution.

[SirMac]

One of the greatest monologues in cinema history.

[bethdavis]

This is a hella important scene for kids to see, much more educational than any history class.

[choryllis]

Wednesday: **lights a match**
Addams Family Theme: That's our girl.

[ZakWolf]

I've always loved how no-nonsense and cool Wednesday could be. I also love how she got the other kids playing the Native Americans to go along with her.

[sigma]

Wednesday may be a dark child, but she was right about everything! Wednesday was extremely justified for telling the truth! She just pulled the biggest middle finger on racism!

[Essylte]

Ahhh...this scene just hits the spot! Thank you, Barry Sonnenfeld, thank you, Christina Ricci, and all the actors involved in the production of this great movie!! I will never forget this moment.
