Meet Joe Blackwas released in 1998 and stars Brad Pitt as both a pro-bono lawyer and the grim reaper. This week everyone tweeted about its bombastic death scene.

Confused? If you haven’t seen the film, Pitt is struck and killed by a car early on in the movie, and death takes over his body so he can experience what it’s like to be a human. It’s a modern remake of 1934’s Death Takes a Holiday.The film, which stars Claire Forlani as the love interest to Pitt’s dual characters, is heartfelt in a sappy kind of way. There are some genuinely good scenesit also featuresAnthony Hopkins.

But the scene where Pitt’s lawyer character “dies” is absolutely ridiculous. The film decided to go with the “standing in the middle of a busy street for no reason” death trope. After meeting at a cafe, Pitt and Forlani’s characters keep looking back at different times. And you wonder why someone didn’t just exchange a business card or something. After about 100 look-backs, Pitt’s character is hit by an oncoming car, and then a taxi from the opposite side. It’s so over-the-top that it feels like a sketch.

Rose O’Shea shared a clip from the scene on Twitter yesterday with the caption, “This is the most bonkers one minute of a movie that I have ever seen.”
