3. The best twist contest – Pulp Fiction (1994)
Well deserved first prize for Uma and John, under the amazing direction of Tarantino.
2. The best dance night – The Matrix Reloaded (2003)
Great passion and energy in this scene. Youtube flags it as adult material, but I ensure you it is nothing you won’t see at lunchtime on Italian TV.

I still cry from laughing when I see this. Great inspiration for Donatella Versace, Giorgio Armani and Dolce & Gabbana.
