Pulp Fiction (1994) - Dance Scene, John Travolta & Uma Thurman #pulpfiction #dance #film #movie

Upon hearing the announcement that a dance competition will momentarily be held in the very restaurant in which they sit, Mia shows immediate interest. However reluctant at first, Vincent eventually agrees, and the two submit their names to take part in the competition. Their song of choice for their routine: “Nobody Can Tell” by Chuck Berry.

What unfolds is simply iconic, with Travolta and Thurman sharing tremendous on-screen chemistry during alluring steps of though-out choreography. Behind-the-scenes stories of this scene are nearly as well-known as Pulp Fiction itself, with the director Tarantino dancing alongside the actors on the other side of the camera to keep them in beat, remind them of the movements. He held the scene very close to his filmmaking heart, as some of Tarantino’s favorite films ever made were influences to one degree or another on the famous scene at hand.
