Tilda Swinton Ebertfest Conga Line: Androgynous A-Lister Leads Barry White Dance Along (VIDEO)

WATCH: Tilda Swinton Leads Ebertfest Conga Line

Oscar-winning indie darling and artful napper Tilda Swinton provided Ebertfest with a memorable moment over the weekend when she led an audience of 1,500 in an 11 a.m. dance-along.

Speaking with late film critic Roger Ebert's wife Chaz onstage ahead of a screening of the film "Blancanieves," a jubilant Swinton ran through the aisles of the historic Virginia Theater in Champaign, Ill. and led the crowd at in a conga line-like dance to Barry White's "You're The First, The Last, My Everything," the Chicago Sun-Times reported.

Swinton called the scene "a spiritual service." IndieWire said it was "the emotional highlight" of the festival.
