Who was Naomi dancing with after the yacht sinks? - A Romantic Couple Dancing in the Yacht

As many of you may recall, in The Wolf of Wall Street the yacht sinks somewhere in the Mediterranean Sea as they are trying to reach Monaco. On the next scene, having been rescued by those Italian folks, Naomi (M. Robbie) appears dancing to U. Tozzi's Gloria theme...

Who was the girl she was dancing with supposed to be? Was she somebody traveling in the ship that rescued the crew of the Naomi or were we expected to "believe" that it was Donnie's wife?

I consider that this question is not totally out of place since we were not told whatever happened to Donnie's wife after Jordan made the captain sail to Monaco in spite of aunt Emma's sudden death in England and because Donnie's wife doesn't appear at all in the scene wherein the Naomi is about to sink...



Best Answer

You are talking about the girl with Naomi in this scene, right!

She is indeed Donnie Azoff's wife Hildy Azoff played by Mackenzie Meehan.

Wiki says:

Jordan, Donnie, and their wives are on a yacht trip to Italy when they learn that Aunt Emma has died of a heart attack. Jordan decides to travel to Switzerland immediately to settle the bank account. To bypass border controls, he orders his yacht captain to sail to Monaco, but the ship is capsized in a storm. After their rescue, the plane sent to take them to Geneva is destroyed when a seagull flies into the engine. Jordan takes this as a sign from God and decides to sober up.

As you may know The Wolf of The Wall Street is based on Jordan Belfort's memoir 'The Wolf of Wall Street' and you can relate the characters the actors portrayed in the film here.

I believe whatever that was happening to Donnie's wife and others, was not shown in the movie as the movie largely focuses on Jordan and his way of life in telling the story. All the characters that are important to Jordan or sticks around him are focused and if you see Donnie's character, his wife is not that important to him now. He does not pay attention to his family any more. His wife is in the ship, but where his wife is at that moment of a disaster, maybe he doesn't even know, because Jordan is important to him. He wants to be where Jordan is, not with his wife, not with Naomi or any other. Jordan is with Naomi, that's why you see her in that scene, else you wouldn't even see her.

Why did Donnie turn Jordan in?

Donnie goes to the FBI with the card to rat Jordan out, for his own appeal for a lighter sentence. Jordan is arrested and taken in for his breach in agreement, betraying Jordan's trust. The FBI head on down to Stratton Oakmont to arrest dozens of workers and employees, as Stratton Oakmont is shut down and defunct.

What happens to Naomi in The Wolf of Wall Street?

After Jordan rapes her, Naomi tells Jordan she is divorcing him and wants full custody of their daughter and infant son. In a cocaine-fueled rage, Jordan hits Naomi and tries to drive away with his daughter, but crashes his car in the driveway.

Did Donnie Azoff marry his cousin?

Yes. According to Jordan Belfort's memoir, the real Donnie Azoff (whose actual name is Danny Porush) did marry his first cousin Nancy "because she was a real piece of ass." After twelve years of marriage, the couple divorced in 1998 after Danny told Nancy that he was in love with another woman (NYPost.com).

Was the Naomi yacht real?

In the film, the motoryacht is called Naomi; in real life, she was a 170-footer christened Nadine, originally built for Coco Chanel and (spoiler alert) really did sink off the coast of Italy in a storm.
