The guitar scene
The part everyone seems to love so much - I thought was pretty terrible. Admittedly I've never heard of the song he was playing but I thought it was supposed to be a joke because of how ridiculous Ferrell sounded. But then Gyllenhaal literally throws herself at him? It was also weird because they had next to no chemistry throughout the film.
Was the impact lost on me purely because I didn't know that song or who Wreckless Eric is? Or maybe because I was so used to seeing Ferrell as a comedic actor before this role?
Someone please explain to me what was so good about this particular scene?
