The party itself is a throng of half-naked people writhing on the dancefloor, a buffet table with piles of cocaine and pills, Nellie dancing on a table, and the elephant running amok. A jazz-infused score runs beautifully through the movie, composed by Justin Hurwitz, whose plunking melody for Chazelle's La La Land vaguely echoes here. The camera takes us into the midst of the action, capturing all the energy and glee.
