Anyway, when Pulp Fiction came out, i heard there was an awesome dance sequence. My parents verified this, after having seen it, but since I was still young (I believe in 6th grade), they wouldn't let me watch the movie. Finally, one night when they rented it, they called me in just so I could watch the dancing sequence.<br /><br />In college I saw the rest of the movie. Great, definitely, but nothing beats the dance scene.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04349631448644661717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-27174507892488184822010-05-17T21:59:36.418-04:002010-05-17T21:59:36.418-04:00In Bumble world we refer to that move from Saturda...In Bumble world we refer to that move from Saturday Night Fever as "the Andy Point."
