What older movies made a good use of either side stepping special effects or have effects that somehow still hold up today? Why are they good movies?

    She’s walking funny on purpose. Those are meant to be some kind of velcro or magnetic slippers she’s wearing. She’s walking carefully because she doesn’t want to go drifting around in microgravity while carrying a tray of food.

    That’s my interpretation, anyway.

      That’s very plausible, but it still doesn’t work well and looks silly IMO. The storytelling doesn’t quite work there.

      Edit: Also the little shuffle still doesn’t make sense to me even with your framing. I’d still expect her to take somewhat larger, less awkward steps. And sway a little less. Except the room is rotating around her.
