FILM: Favourite film moment, ever?

[cadillac1234]

Older films:

Orson Wells stepping out of the Vienna shadows making his first appearance in 'The Third Man'.

The Roach nailing the screaming VC on the other side of the bridge with a mortar in 'Apocolypse Now'

Recent Film:

Sonny Chiba realizing why The Bride is in his bar.

Band of Brothers - Episode "Points" - when they are playing baseball and Winters recaps what happened to each of them after the war. I'm tearing up just thinking about that scene right now.

This is tough, but I keep coming back to The Maltese Falcon, at the end when Spade tells Brigid that he is turning her in.

Spade: Well, if you get a good break, you'll be out of Tehachapi in 20 years and you can come back to me then. I hope they don't hang you, precious, by that sweet neck...Yes, angel, I'm gonna send you over. The chances are you'll get off with life. That means if you're a good girl, you'll be out in 20 years. I'll be waiting for you. If they hang you, I'll always remember you.

Brigid: Don't, Sam. Don't say it even in fun. Ha, ha, ha. Oh, I was frightened for a minute. I really thought...You do such wild and unpredictable things.

Spade: Don't be silly. You're taking the fall.

Brigid: You've been playing with me. Just pretending you care to trap me like this. You didn't care at all. You don't love me!

Spade: I won't play the sap for you!

Brigid: Oh you know it's not like that. You can't say that.

Spade: Do you ever fight square with me for half an hour at a stretch since I've known you?

Brigid: You know down deep in your heart and in spite of anything I've done I love you.

Spade: I don't care who loves who!! I won't play the sap for you. I won't walk in Thursby's - and I don't know how many other's - footsteps. You killed Miles and you're going over for it.

Dialogue Based
True Romance- Dennis hopper speach, Sicillians come from niggers

Third Man- Orson wells Ferris Wheel Speech

Rodger Dodger: Scene were he teaches Nick how to look at girls

Action
Ong Bak- street chase and club fight
Equilibrium- all gun Kata scenes
Heat- enough said

Just like, Coolness
The Professional: Opening hit

[B Dids]

Usual Suspects- Verbal's walk out of the station and the realization of what just happened.

Princess Bride- "Hello, My Name is Inigo Montoya, you killed my father, prepare to die"

Babe- The sheep hearding routine- this is such a beautifully shot bit, and the silence is just amazing, I will cry when I watch this and I'm not afraid to admit it.

The Two Towers- I also mark out every time Gandal shows up at the battle, and then Eomer slides in behind him and they charge.

I'm there's more, but that's what's sticking with me right now.

[Sightless]

Fight Club: The conversation that Tyler Durden had with Raymond K. Hesselin the parking lot of a convienence store.

That is great... have you read the book? Even after seeing the miniseries I think it would be worthwhile (though I'm not sure because I read the book before it was made).

They aren't just a "moment" but I really love the very beginning of Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Arc and The Last Crusade. The Last Crusade is also a great "riding in to the sunset" ending.

Moments:

End of Cinema Paradiso when he is watching all the old film kisses that were cut out.

The end of Saving Private Ryan when he makes his wife tell him hes lived a good life...

A certain scene in Barbarian Invasions which I won't say because most probably haven't seen it.

Kill Bill 2, after the part with the old chinese dude when they cut back to Kiddo in the grave and music starts playing.

"Birds gotta eat, same as worms" (might not be exact)

"The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist... and poof, just like that, he's gone."

"You may bid the mob good day" -The Man from Snowy River (as Jim starts riding down the side of the cliff)

Oh, and when Yoda "pulls" his light saber out in EP2.


Apparently I'm a sucker for a good (not necessarily happy) ending?

I am a HUGE Star Wars fan, but even I laughed at how incredibly cheesy that sequence was.
