Scarlett Johansson dancing memes

Previously on Marriage Story memes, the internet tussled over an out-of-context fight scene from the Noah Baumbach film. Now it’s turned its attention to Scarlett Johansson’s dancing.

Johansson’s character, Nicole, is an actress in the midst of a divorce from her director husband, Charlie (Adam Driver). Early in the film, Charlie comments that “She’s a great dancer, infectious.” The Marriage Story Twitter account posted a clip in which she shows off her moves, and it quickly became a meme.

Some people took issue with the original tweet’s statement: “A celebration of love.” And, to be fair, the dancing scene happens in the first five minutes of the film, before all the depressing stuff starts.
