Holly Hunter's Ecstasy Dance - Living Out Loud

[misterashley]

Love it, but you would never hear that song in a club. This movie is really good.

[AlmostWithYou94]

Do you know what I love about this - it's like even when the women touch each other isn't not intrusive or sexual it's all about feeling themselves and what the touch of another person allows them to feel themselves. Or at least that's what it seems like to me.

[rodneymjones]

I love this scene!!

[yodibird1]

God i loved this movie!!

[MrRonniethanksgiving]

Great scene. I didn't realize this movie was directed by the same guy that wrote Fisher King, thus the dream-like dance scene. Either way, it works for me!!!

[speebyda]

It is a shame that they hid her in some parts.

[allonewordy]

Very useful to have your main character on drugs if you want to include one of those "spontaneous yet heavily choreographed dance in the club" scenes. That was Gene Kelly's secret, apparently.

[qnevets]

Who sings this song

[MrFenner69]

@qnevets group is called brownstone

[ottawaaky2]

@qnevets -brownstown

[payasoloco1287]

i think the first song that they entered is from a band called wild orchid



[Arimaarima71]

I love this movie!! So many of my friends never heard of it. Holly Hunter should have been nominated for an Oscar for this role. She was absoluetly PHENOMINAL!!!

[shantia77]

Hey what can you say, we women LOVE to dance!!

[payasoloco1287]

wats the song at 1:56???

[MrFenner69]

@payasoloco1287 it sounds like a faster dance remix of the dance sequence of this scene

[lizzlewisus]

@payasoloco1287 If you love me by Brownstone.

[payasoloco1287]

@lizzlewisus no the song when they first enter

[lizzlewisus]

@payasoloco1287 That's the same song just sped up or Remix.

[MrFenner69]

queen latifahs' vocals and the lesbian line dance scene is the best part of the whole movie .

[MusicEd1]

This is a great scene in the movie...great movie, great cast! There is nothing like female energy and I don't mean that in a lude way. It's unique. We have our male energy and that's good, but I've observed women when they're together and they have an incredible connection with eachother, that we men could most definately learn from. Oh great song too. Rocks! Peace, : )

[MadMike2288]

What the hell is Frank Reynolds doing there?

[makavelijuniour]

if that elevator had another 10 floors 2 go he would've got laid lol

[nupec100]

Amei essa e as cenas que se seguem!!!

[kuronakatu]

could you teach me this songs title ?

[frankiep626]

@kuronakatu It's by Brownstone. The song is "If You Love Me (The Remix Version)"

[kuronakatu]

@frankiep626 thank you very much sorry  i dindn't check 9month ><

[kuronakatu]

@frankiep626

[badone92]

man i wish i could go to a club like this. it looks so freeing

[Harryknottpotter]

This is an amazing dance scene, so sensual and exquisite in its execution. Beautifully lit, fantastic costuming, beautiful women, great music and excellent choreography. Unquestionably my favorite scene from "Living Out Loud", one of my favorite Holly Hunter movies, another being, "Always" costarring Richard Dreyfus.

[VTMCompany]

is holly horny?

[arimababy]

love this movie!! Holly Hunter and Queen Latifa rocked!

[SapphireSister]

One of my favorite movie scenes ever from one of my favorite movies ever! How do I not own this movie? If you have not seen it, see it NOW! It says so muuch about not only freeing all those stereotypes that society propetuates but freeing one's self from all those inner barriers that prevent you from being who you really are. Free thy self!

[funimuni808]

danny devito u lucky bastard lol :)

[South3rnSass]

I love holly hunter!

[1Corx]

This scene is so Pimptastic!

[blf112761]

I am an unabashed, dyed-in-the-wool heterosexual, but this scene ... viva la vulva, baby!

[mineralogyom]

She also starred in the cable television series Saving Grace.

[violentgum]

Great song, great scene - Hunter is terrific in the movie but DeVito is miscast.

[linny50]

This a great scene,so beautiful,sexy and memorable.

[jozsefkacsa]

is she a lesbian in the show?

[linny50]

@jozsefkacsa No her character was not a lesbian.

[madcap66laughs]

This is so hottt!!! Still get chills when I see this scene.

[TK42138]

Not sure if I prefer Holly Hunter as a blonde or brunette... who cares she's stunning and a quality actress. This scene works for me.....

[rachbaby72]

One of my favorite scenes of all time. Doesn't get it better. I love this song! I love Holly Hunter!

[stat3man]

One of my favorite movie scenes of all time - the group dance at the nightclub.

[emilythe11emo]

Lol luv it

[RICKSHERRILLL]

Holly does XXX!

[AzureHvn]

Great movie! Fun scene. Underrated actress!!

Even if u'r straight I recommend u to have a glass of wine or two (or X or a lude or whatever ur choice - just to loosen up) & head out to such a club. There is something so liberating/freeing in being with all women; dancing, touching, feeling, laughing, watching, etc... I don't mean that in a sexual nature, however, it is pretty sexual. It's a very fun, enlightening, Great experience!!

[FlyingGuySFO]

@AzureHvn -- Ahh yes those nights of unbridled pleasure, experience and just fun. I feel ya.

[czerniakow1]

Terrific acting by Holly Hunter. Great scene and music.

The atmosphere is palpable.

[wildflowerr1]

I wish I was there. Is there a place like this let me know. I'm ready to go. does anyone know the intro music. I play this everyday. Santa Monica

[cranky1chick]

It's a sweet and poignant scene in a great movie. I love the fact that towards the end she embraces her younger self, both for comfort and out of fear for what the future holds for her now that she's about to be divorced.

[Not1OfUrFans]

She was so high. I love how they just broke into dance. Why has this never happened to me?

[GIQUE900]

Take a quaalude and it will. I loved that movie. It has one of my favorite movie lines ever, "I mean the situation clearly called for me to attack him!"

[NTNGALE10]

@GIQUE900 mine is "just because it fell apart it doesn't mean it wasn't love at some point". that's what she said when when she was attacking him. i agree, he clearly deserved it.

[Beautifu1B1urr]

@Not1OfUrFans You must have never taken ecstasy :p

[Not1OfUrFans]

@Beautifu1B1urr Never. lol Sounds like I've been missing out if this is not out of the ordinary.

[Beautifu1B1urr]

@Not1OfUrFans Well I'm not saying it's a good thing, bc ecstasy is a highly illegal drug and not really good for you as most drugs aren't. But I can say it makes you want to touch everyone and dance and just really let yourself go and live life unlike you ever have.

[Katobodybuilder]

Oh yeah! and the scene with Eddie Cibrian stripping down to his boxer briefs is not bad either. My only problem is that they cut down that scene, WAY TOO SHORT.

[Katobodybuilder]

Great dance sequence, and unexpected within the movie. But unfortunately there's no Lesbian dance clubs like that in real life. They just made the Lesbian version of a Gay dance club. And I have not been able to find the Dance version of Brownstone's as featured on this scene, only the original. GREAT MOVIE, check it out!

[contact1araya]

I hate her fucking voice.

[4shys2]

Brownstone - If you love me! I think by the time she entered the bar.The "little pill" kicked in a slowed everything down.Its' the same song! She was ready to unwind,and jam!

[yetanotheraccount2re]

If you haven't seen this movie Do. It's absolutely wonderful. Holly Hunter is wonderful and gorgeous as this character and Queen Latifah is spectacular. Danny DeVito gave his character some nuances- everyone is totally believable. You will love this sexy, pretty movie!

[drfittt]

Will do. Just watched "Raising Arizona" and looking for more with Holly. This one did not get much press.

[GIQUE900]

@drfittt - ha ha I LOVE Raising Arizona.

[adordunio1]

One of the best dances I've seen, but who is the actress that Holly Hunter embraces at the end of the scene???

[msbiddy1]

If you watch the movie, you'll find out that is her younger self. Its actually kind of a touching moment.

[4shys2]

She is embraces "the younger version" of herself!

[4shys2]

Rachael Leigh Cook as the "younger Judieth" !

[GIQUE900]

@adordunio1 - Rachel Leigh Cook (her younger self) - it's sybolic that she is accepting her full self.

[mfbarretto]

dance music??????

[bignate4000]

i love this song anyone who loves this song send me a friend invite.

[4shys2]

I also love "Give Me Something Real",by Clark Anderson at the end of the movie!

[GIQUE900]

@4shys2 - YES! AWESOME!

[netwitt1]

This is one of my favorite movie sequences as well, and the movie itself is an under-noticed gem. Holly looks great and the choreography is SO sexy - something that even a non-dancer like Holly can do and look smashing doing it! The song is one of my favs, too. All around terrific film making and I love how Holly's character embraces her younger self at the end of the sequence - very simple but eloquent statement!

[mfbarretto]

which the name of the dance music when they enter the lesbian bar?

[ragingflamerboy]

I'm gay.

this has to be one of the SEXIEST scenes in a movie ever

[pansx]

It's interesting thinking back of this movie in the late 90's, this is a VERY powerful scene it shows how a woman can feel so lost in a commanding world and get lost in a destructive relationship and lose sense of self but in this small little scene shows how powerful she is and how much control she should or can have of her own happiness/life. This movie is one of the few movies i've checked out since, has expressed that idea in such a moving and emotionally powerful way. i was a kid back then.

[tracymariedion]

very sexy HOLLY...

[cuddlesp]

This is my favorite scene from this movie. This, and, the massage scene with Eddie Cibrian of course! The dance scene just transitions is so compelling and emotional to watch and I have to give high praise to whoever choreographed this scene. It's no wonder I've seen Living Out Loud about a dozen times already.

[Frenchiesaurus]

haha. I haven't seen it yet but these scenes are so enticing. How many scenes with Eddie? Just the one I assume?

[mca1218]

A stunningly sexy sequence- with a gentle nod to "Big Spender" and musicals in general. Bob Fosse would be proud. And is that "En Vogue" on vocals? The song is gorgeous!

[snidelywhiplash]

The song I believe you're referring to is "If You Love Me" by Brownstone. Great song, and a sleeper of a movie, in which I first learned Queen Latifah is a helluva singer. :)

[mca1218]

OK. Thanks. I wasn't sure, but those harmonies are stunning. I can revise my statement to say that the sequence is a nod to En Vogue, the Fosse number "Big Spender," and musical films in general.

[FuturePatronSaint]

It was cool how they came into formation like that. It looked like a music video.

[thedurable1]

Que Buena Son las Mujeres!

[thedurable1]

How can ANYONE hate women? I love 'em all.

[6celery8]

One of my fav' movies from the late 90s...luv this dance scene!

[thedurable1]

Dance sequences in non-musicals never worked for me, until this movie---EXCELLENT. Did anyone else notice the last person she dances with is actually herself as a teenager?

[6celery8]

Yep...she's dancing with herself at the end...SIMPLY SUBLIME!

[Floorsnarl]

Where can I find this club?

[Floorsnarl]

Danny Devito, " It was the best fucking moment of my life! I can't explain it - my penis was bigger than me."

[nenecuechi]

Sex bomb Hunter!!, she is tiny but what a sexy bomb woman, Brownstone song´s and Holy make us fall on deep touch ecstasy!!!

[ragingflamerboy]

man, I'm gay - and this is one of the HOTTEST scenes in cinema if you ask me.

[lilcoco77007]

Oops I meant ecstasy!

[lilcoco77007]

This was kinda like my favorite part of the movie.

It is like a taste of freedom to just be...

I just hope it is without the extract and having some men there though to share that freedom.

[eliza1960]

Excellent adaptation of real life crisis. Queen Latifah is so elegant~ why isn't she doing jazz more often??? I loved this flick, and have watched it over and over again. Bravo!

[roqulere]

Love this scene so much. Perfect match to the song since she needed to show herself, tell herself, and prove to herself that she loved herself.

[tjjeepgurl]

I love this part of the movie...awesome!!!! But, I don't get the part where the young girl goes up to her and they start to dance at the end. I never got that part...ANYONE KNOW WHAT THAT WAS ABOUT??? IT DRIVES ME CRAZY...

[Patrice26]

It's her finding herself. The girl represent her. I guess she lost herself when she was married.

[Jezerellica]

Yeah, finding herself as a girl actually. Earlier in the film she represents her before she grows up. So shes like embracing her inner child. Very cool. Glad you know now because it makes me teary at that part. Hey! See the movie, maybe?

[CiindO2]

same here.

[Citzenesse]

I think that it was all about receiving and giving affection. I think she was receiving love and giving it through touch. She held the other woman and they just stood there in the moment.

[Maladeisia]

She is literally embracing her inner child. (remember she's high)

[gasnra09]

Very good movie- Very quiet, understated movie, but it spoke volumes!

I always got the feeling I was eavesdropping on the life of Holly Hunter's character.

[scarlett7477]

what a great scene. one of my all-time favorite movies.

[HiddenPassion1]

Does anyone know who sings this song?!

[thekaliko]

Brown Stone

[jusaliltree]

I would love to be surrounded by women when I'm dancing. I so should go to a lesbian club, I'm not sure they let guys in though.

[MoonwalkerPJ]

i LOVE this scene!!!

[biberkopf]

Yeah, this is a great movie, definitely one of my all time favorites. And the Brownstone song is one of my favorites and I was so pleasantly surprised the first time I saw this movie and it came to that scene. Absolutely beautiful!! This is making me want to dig out the DVD now!

[marilisa009]

Oh. My. God. Does it get any better than that? Perfection. I swear I've reinacted that scene time and again on the dance floor; or was it the Grey Goose?

[DaveBearLV]

Who said a little black dress can't go everywher !

[tenchiynh]

I have been a fan of this movie for almost a decade. This particular scene at "The Confessional" is arguably one of the best dance sequences in movie history. I met director Richard LaGravanese last year in New York, it was a real honor!

[madcap66laughs]

This movie is so amazing!

[blackenuf4ya]

LOVE this clip!

[tiffburger]

i'm in love with this song becuz of this club scene!!!

[japanda122]

aw! is there any way someone could upload the whole movie? i love this movie!!!

[TrueBlueSue49]

A must see movie, no way to understand this great scene otherwise. She is not gay, she is accepting herself in scene when she hugs young girl who is her at a younger age.

[QuintB]

If You Love Me - Brownstone awsome song great movie

[sheebab]

Holly en danny, This is the best fil i ever seen

Soe the netherlands

[hoegsbro]

as far as i'm concerned, holly hunter is the most attractive woman on the planet.

[mrteryx]

This was one of the best choreographed dance scenes in film history. It was simple, elegant, erotic and sexual. Anyone having enjoyed the dance floor alone would have loved to have been a part of such an experience. I must the mention, the music was to die for. Thanks for this one!!!

[candygurl8]

LOLz i luv holly!!!

[ginerlynn]

Terrific! Love Hunter. Thanks for posting this.

[heyheybobbie]

I remember this movie when it first came out. What I noticed on the big screen was this.... Holly was dancing with the single girl, and I saw the girl had the same tattoo as Holly. I really felt she was dancing with/accepting her younger self. I really liked that.

[ROMELANE]

Much to my ignominy I have to admit that I just recently discovered this movie less than a week ago. This was/is an excellent movie and true to my fellow you tube viewer statements; this movie was overlooked. Well I'm looking now and I like what I see. I was hoping that someone had uploaded this particular scene. This is a beautiful scene one of the best "club" scenes I've seen in a long time if ever. It really moved me.

[krcdt]

one of the best dance sequences on film...up there w/ the fisher king grand central station scene.. ive never been crazy but i have done e..very realistic

[stamps45]

thats one of the sexyest dance scenes in a movie, she's just letting go and having fun. i watch that movie just for that scene, gets me right here :)

[Ghball]

The song is "If You Love Me" by Brownstone.

[marmavit]

Thank you I love this song and the sequence in the Movie is just the most perfect cathartic one!

[Barbidell]

If anyone knows the song that they dance to and who sings it, please do tell.

[krcdt]

brownstone..if you love me.. on the soundtrack

[whatupyo2006]

lol i love that rehearsed dance !! priceless !! didnt see that coming !lol im wanna see this

[pvtchef66]

Snaps to Richard La Gravanese(sp)!-Director

[caa5042]

one of my favorite movies too. definitely overlooked

[sprtsluvr8]

This is one of my favorite movies...memorable lines, great scenes, clever writing, hilarious...but it definitely is overlooked. I didn't discover it until about 5 years ago.

[VersGifted]

Whatever that pill was that she took???  I want some!!!! Such a great scene from an overlooked movie.

[FeverDog420]

Looks like the same pill Britney took just before her VMA "performance."
