      Remember that actors are trained to control not just their face, but also their bodies. Think of acting as very very slow dancing. You'll often find videos of actors cutting it up on the dance floor. Chris Hemsworth and Tom Holland come to mind.

Someone else gave her the okay to make her own dance and when Tim finally saw it, he eventually went with it. There's so much you don't know, don't give credit to one person please.

This is Her dancing to a 'T'. The haunting gaze, the goofy Addams' dancing, the Spanish sass. And the fact that she even added in this element of spook when Wednesday drops down and reappears behind him. It's just 💋🤌truly. And on top of the dancing, just in her eyes, not only can you feel the disdain for the social event and the dancing but also the enjoyment of keeping her date on his toes.

    It's cool how this pays homage to Wednesday's dancing in the TV-series from the 60's (when it was just contemporary pop music, like the equivalent of Taylor Swift today, but now that the music is 60 years old, it emphasizes how old school she is instead).
    I also love how she throws in little bits of flamenco and tango, similar to how her parents would dance both in the TV-series and in the movies from the 90's.(and even a bit of Lurch)
