In Videos: John Travolta's Double-Decking Slice-Struttin' Action in 'Saturday Night Fever'
I love it when a plan comes together. For years, I've been wanting to get a clip of the opening scene of Saturday Night Fever, the bit where John Travolta's Tony Manero orders two slices of pizza from Lenny's, double-decks them and struts down 86th Street in Bensonhurst. After mentioning the film earlier tonight, I dug around on YouTube, found the opener, and trimmed the vid down to just the relevant pizza-related footage. Enjoy ...

Doesn't that just make you want to DO that, as if that would make you the coolest person ever, strutting your stuff?
I don't care if he starred in some questinoable films later on and I'm not really a fan--for that brief moment of pizza-walking JT is the coolest person on the planet.
